RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: CORONAVIRUS SERIES
Dark Shadows
They crawl out of the cracks
Of America’s nightmare
Loom in the hazy background
Watching with great care
Ready to pounce
Spinning a lair
Taking a life
On a dare
They mark the path of the fools parade
Follow those who do not know
Who did not care
Go with the flow
A defiant stare
All for the show
Too much to bear
They carry a seed of deadly disease
Steals your breath away
Make you weak and feeble
Make your body sway
It has the number
You must pay
The shadow knows
The shadow grows
So bow your head
And pray
