(Idea from: Sam Cooke)
Lo, I was;
In trance;
I look!
I see!
Everywhere;
Overtake;
Overtakes;
Overtake;
Confusion ever;
Breaking bone;
The wicked;
Carries men;
In captivity;
See them;
Children weep;
They hunger;
They thirst;
No food;
Nor water;
To eat;
Nor drink!
Everywhere;
Is struggling;
For money;
Everywhere;
Is bombing;
Everywhere;
Is maiming;
Everywhere;
Is killing;
See mankind;
Future is bleak!
Yet, a preacher;
Comes preach;
To dying men;
He talks ‘bout;
Suffocation in;
Lake of hell fire;
But, I say:
It’s already;
Hell on earth;
In all these;
Fizz bombs!
