Looking down at the ground
I see all my friends running around
Spreading the disease
As much as they please
One bite is all it takes
To make many aches
Some blame the church
But they don’t have time to research
Because were moving fast
Oh this disease is going to be vast
I feel something on my back
It’s quite tiny and black
It’s just my friend flea
He’s oh so quite deadly
Many bodies being carried
Too fast to be buried
But now there is silence
After all this violence
Oh this disease

Well, this poem was made to tell about the Black death that went on a long time ago. I think its awful that some us have forgotten about it! So I made the point of view from a rat.. that carries the fleas (which bite people) I hope people will think more about it now.
