Hell on Earth
Eyeglass
Peer into the mind depth
Dark and foreboding
Lover entwined
To the serpent rainbow
Repent
And find daylight
It was God’s token promise
That the next apocalypse
Would be with fire
Man’s suicide genocide monumental
homicide
Encompass the earth
In hellish flames
I saw the angels rise
And the dead walk
Stalking their murderers
With fierce glowing eyes
Maddened by centuries of trapped dust
I rode the chariot with Christ
And vanquished the evil-doers
I took notes
And watched
As the holy ascended to Heaven
He turned to me saying,
“You wondered where Hell was,
Well, you were in it
The whole time.”
