RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: CORONAVIRUS SERIES
The Battle Within
Like a tightened noose
A battle rages within
One side must lose
The other must win
One side attacks
The other retreats
Bruised and battered
Resolved to defeat
How long must I suffer
The curse of this spell?
Three days of discomfort
Or a lifetime in hell?
The body yearns peace
Among all its parts
The lungs and the liver
The brain and the heart
When the battle still rages
Something must give
The invader must leave
For the host to live
