Ode to my Immune System
Oh knights in shining arm or leg
 My chest is filled with thee
 For I have never had to beg,
 Or kneel on one knee.
 
 When pestilence is pestering
 You've come to rescue me,
 If preemptively I'm fighting,
 Or peaceably asleep.
 
 In war you are intelligent
 And nimble with your fleet. 
 Your fevered fire’s competence
 Assures a swift defeat.
 
 Come wind and snow and rainy bog
 I look to you with pride
 My knight in shining arm or leg
 That saves me from inside.
 
 So here I languish in my bed
 With Netflix on replay.
 I’m waiting in my castle, love
 Please come and save the day.
