Poetry: Vulnerable

Be a Nurse


No matter how well you are,
Born in a lucky sack, beware
Of an invisible, bizarre
Microbes regarding us as pray.

Don't sneeze on yucky maladies.
Immune to sickness, you might still
Face unforseen fatalities
Among your friends that gotten ill.

You're brave, you're tough, but have regurd
For ailments that tare apart
On friendships, love, and children's dreams,
Be one who fights unwelcome strains

Of viral mucus, and sickening slime,
Be one to guards the weaker kind,
To save, protect and immunize
Against the sicknesses of our times.

    Dullness, danger, used to gleam
    Burning brightly, then it's passed
    Funny how good things
