RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: CORONAVIRUS SERIES
Quarantine the Court
The high court of the nation
Denies the role of government
In fighting back contagion
For the virus is heaven sent
The court decrees you cannot ban
A gathering where many trod
More deadly than we understand
If it invokes the name of god
So come ye faithful young and old
Drop thy mask and pull together
Raise up a hallelujah bold
Take shelter from the weather
Pack the congregation hall
Sing out to the heavens
Saints and sinners hear the call
Roll out your lucky sevens
We dare not question how and why
The justices abandoned reason
We dare not ask how many died
For this judicial treason
(The Court overrules New York’s
ban on religious gatherings)
