No Where To Run

This merciless invasion A wolf in incubation Deadly maturation Mandatory isolation Fear upon fear amplification World-wide gargantuan A new generation Of lives in detention Many made concessions Amongst frustrations Swilling in the stagnation Of nature's destruction Unmerciful predation No retaliation Where is salvation On this train of extinction Oh God help the nations Escape this damnation Save us from ruination And give us resurrection

G'day Timothy ... I can certainly read the frustration in your verse Timothy. Down here we're nearly all advised to stay home. The fines are very steep for defying - stay safe Timothy - Lindsay

I'm with you here all the way, my friend. We could use a miracle in the supernatural sense, at this point! :) gw

Thanks Richard when I was a kid I never dreamed of such happenings. I just thought about putting a baseball card in the spokes of my bike and other kid things.
