Deadly Intruder
POEM " DEADLY INTRUDER" by martin gedge
What is this intrusion of each breath I'm taking in
to move with every muscle nestled neath my blood and skin
thus wrapped around the coil and like soil rooted deep
to foil an apparatus in the lungs as creepers creep
can't mask the situation to eliminate its race
as to the touch will hurt as much that's littered on the face
a stricken drive has just arrived from species known to man
the need is just to stay alive and vaccinate a plan
injected in the system with the symptoms to compose
through every beat and rhythm that is vital to the rose
each prick to stick inside the wall to plant it's deadly vice
from panic to pandemic as we scurry all like mice
and forced atone to stay at home and hide behind the scene
locked and chained with every strain in self made quarantine
the deadly toll in constant roll a planet to unfold
clear that fear is so severe when gravity's taking hold
and as each case is taking place moves closer to the heart
it's time to line the greatest minds to come out of the dark
a world awaits in dyer fate that we shall overcome
and to defeat this monster meat for peace and everyone
but hell to pay we see this day a virus on the spread
with every prayer that takes to air in sheets that cover dead
who knows how long this must go on an end we need in sight
for eyes anew to grasp a view to see the morning light...
