As the invisible COVID swallows up the world
We see death in disguise, looming
Is our ephemeral character called back?
When the End casts its darkest shadow
we dramatically see Life’s light
We struggle to break despair’s shackles
that deadbolt our lives down
We are playing hangman and guessing a word
From an unwritten chapter of life
Remember, every crucial move delays the noose.
A topical poem , but only the correct moves or in fact decisions to make no move even can delay the inevitable . Crucial decisions wrongly taken can be fatal in these troubled times .
An engaging, reflective poem filled with serious insights.
