RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: CORONAVIRUS SERIES
Race Against Time
It is not a war
With bullets and guns
It is not an enemy
Of any kind
As the virus evolves
It may render us blind
It may steal our resolve
It’s a race against time
We have the vaccines
That protect us for now
But as the mutants take hold
We may not know how
To protect us tomorrow
And on down the line
It’s a long hard road
It’s a race against time
We know what to do
We know how it’s done
It will not be easy
And it will not be fun
But we have no choice
We’re caught in a bind
To survive this virus
It’s a race against time
So line up in your cities
Line up in your towns
Take your shot in the arm
When your turn comes around
For now we’re not worried
We’re feeling just fine
But tomorrow’s in question
It’s a race against time
