Gasoline or petrol, you may call it what you will I brought with me a lot of it… however did it spill ;-) Of course I spilt it carefully; the trail starts at my feet But I’m no hero and I trust I’ll beat a quick retreat I watch the skies and realise the early morning light Reveals a fast encroaching smog and I prepare to fight And now, at last, it’s me-and-it and I must stand my ground And if I can’t prevail I hope my body shall be found I smell it, I can taste it, I can almost hear it breathe But can it think and can it know what I have up my sleeve When Its end of this ailing bridge is hidden as it nears I strike a match and bring to it the worst of all its fears The flame ignites the trail of fuel and streaks into its midst And as the river bank erupts I think it might be pissed A screeching sears my ear drums; has the end of it begun? I have to trust to luck for now its time for me to run As you might expect I’ve taken to the other bank I’ve run just twenty paces when I smell a smell that’s rank But now my ears have found a peace; the silence is profound I fear that smog is at my back, but still I turn around… No big scare, but over there upon the land I burned No sign of the smog that ‘me-for-breakfast’ clearly yearned But wait! What is that slimy gloop that blankets yonder field? I tell myself, with fingers crossed, that, “It was it that kneeled.” Why did it prowl the mists of mornings ’fore the risen sun Perhaps it stalked a waking Earth since mornings first begun I only hope I’ve killed it though I shall not wait to see But… I’ve put the fear of God in it and it the same in me
