George was a pirate, but he wasn’t a very good pirate.

His adventures took him far and wide, and once he went to China.

“This cave bat is delicious,” he told the street vendor. “Can I have another?”

That’s how George caught the Coronavirus.

He was feverish and coughing for days.

Spreading the disease like wildfire.

Authorities called for people to shelter in place, putting the world in a lockdown.

“Plenty of opportunities to loot and pillage,” wheezed the captain over the conference call.

“Sure,” said George, wrapped in his bathrobe.

He took a Mucinex and went back to bed.
