Take up White Blood Cell’s Burden

Send forth the best immunity

Go send your defenders to exile

To serve your master’s needs

*

To wait in a heavy battle filled with blood

Antibodies left and right

Your newly caught organisms

Half died, half lived

*

Take up the White Blood Cell’s Burden

In patience to protect

To prepare for a short life

and check the health status of your master

*

By open wounds and spilled comrades

A million times they die

To seek the ultimate victory

And continuously persevere until the 20th day

*

Take up the White Blood Cell’s Burden

And succumb to a life of chaos

The never-ending conflict of those you could care less

The bitter death of those you forget about

The cry of those you don’t hear

*

Take up the White Blood Cell’s Burden

  1. I love how everyone, including myself, os doing it on being an introvert, a procrastinator, etc and you choose to write it about a white blood cell. I love how it turns a little WBC into a significant hardworking cell. This also happens aligns perfectly with our current unit in anatomy. Good job πŸ™‚

  2. I absolutely lovvvvveeee this parody!! It is so funny and educational at the same time. I would never ever want to be a white blood cell. Imagine all the friends they loose. πŸ˜” Anyways, this was great, and I might just have to use it to study for the anatomy test. 🀩
