Fighting With An Unexpected Guest

There's a tiny monster gliding in the air Whoever you are, it shows no spare Swiftly quaffing the earth's unstained blood, it resolved to bury a raft of bodies under the pleading mud. Missiles are aimed at an eclipsed enemy Trying to discover home in this endless journey Warriors are rifled with rigour Not caring for a cut or a blister. School drums went dumb Town fairs said no welcome Smiles and lives are masked Tears and fears are hiked. A son was buried while his mother quarantined A husband died miles away leaving his wife estranged The empty stadiums engulfed the players' sky-high spirits Innocent lives are turning to dust every few minutes. It's transient my child! It's all transient. Short-lived are these strong winds Ephemeral are these hot waves Cry not in the dark night Smiles re-bloom upon winning this fight. Every bud blooms after the rain as a norm It's time to be an eagle and rise above the storm
