The wonderful magic called antibiotic

Antibiotic, antibiotic, antibiotic

It can make life miserable for the 'harmful' biotic

A boon to treat infections chronic

But losing all its magic

Because of thoughts and actions miopic

Humankinds' misery is reaching heights astronomic

Making the resistance more frequent and the bacteria frolic!

Now how can we control these creatures microscopic?

By making resistant-proof drugs from Nature's pharmacologic

Taking the help of molecular epidemiologic

Engineering viruses bacteriophagic

Going to the depths of aquatic

Searching all stuff 'dustic'

Using things rustic

Scientists are making signs triumphatic

Soon they will be singing victory music!
