The Real X-files



Nothing like the TV alien series
Or data from X-twitter archives
It's about Factor-X the unseen disease
Beneath melting permafrost that'll claim lives

World Health Organization doesn't know yet
How infectious cloaked pandemic will develop
When subsurface ice melts is best bet
Then worldwide infected populations will drop
