Inflation of the Pantry Staple

Fresh warning of what could happen, With a fear so new and strong, An unprecedented threat puts pressure, On the price of this staple's throng. As the new normal sets its course, The cost of the commodity grows, The feelings of certainty ebbing away, As cost of purchasing sky-high soars. Secure places start to fade away, Prices unimaginably high, A staple once considered low-cost, Is suddenly too rich for the eye. Unprecedented, the threat at hand, We worry of price forever climbing, Soaring cost of this trusted staple, Causes worry of 'the new normal' looming.
