RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: CORONAVIRUS SERIES
Survive
A rolling spectacle of misery
The loneliness of isolation
The scourge of homelessness
The prospect of destitution
The hopelessness of prostitution
The stain of human bondage
The glorification of violence
The deification of criminality
The universality of suffering
A failing will to stay alive
Yet do not worry little ones
We have not lost our drive
We will survive
The western world on fire
A raging mother earth
Prophecies most dire
Pray for what it’s worth
The sound of towers crashing
The cry of souls in pain
Slaves receive a lashing
Tears like pounding rain
Yet do not worry little ones
Though hard times have arrived
Be strong and keep your head
We will survive
