The Wrath of God – Poem

SOUSSE, Tunisia

Pouring rain is mightier than ever

Till verdure is to fade and sever

Snow is the reminder of peace

I've never heard a thunder so fierce

Distaste is a needle for to pierce

The flesh of your brother

The skin of your mother

And the cheek of your sister.

Time is ripe, the time is today

To do away with your decay

Either beat you to fast or kill you to pray

No more beer to sip, no more ashtrays

Plentiful, are those prostitutes on the highway

Human flesh, for wolves fell for prey

Human worth is a price we pay

Watch out what you do and say

Mind you! Time is past when all seem to last

The wrath of God was to come and came

Me, you or them, everybody is to blame

Love becomes some Poker game

Feelings have no mere names

Honesty gives you shame

Life gets utterly lame

A picture with no frame

Things, fake, no more the same.

Smiles, sore, strained, in pain.

People, beasts, horses never untamed

Truth, suffocating with being ashamed

Snowy ground, with cold blood stained

Then the wrath of God came

The Lord echoes to you His name, though in vain

Tells you to disembark that wrong train

Now it feels like it will forever rain

To wash up your filth, woe and strain.
