There's a nice parallel between the bush that was actually ravaged this last summer, and the cities that are being ravaged by COVID. I like the use of 'imagined' to describe the heightened sense of paranoia...cough cough
The pacing through the 7 lines is good, and there's economy of words. There's a nice play on 'r' in ravage / milkwort / thorn. The description is vivid.
Outstanding.
