Blizzard Bitter

Ache in soul, O prophet?
The world is horrid hell.
Tracheotomy Tophet!
Suffering a-swell!

Gale, crash with titanic force!
Roil the ocean bad.
Ship that I'm in, blow off course...
That will lurk, O lad...

Horror, thou art with us.
Volcano, just explode.
Mayhem, madness, ornery cuss.
Bitterness, fate, ode...

Cry of a dying warrior?
He must have got hit square.
Poisonous and on the pour!
Blessings, be thou bare.

Grim and grateful, hoary, high.
Machine on the move.
Doom and Death, deliver! I?
What have I to prove?

Clash of giant armies?
O warlocks, bombs away!
Never mind the charm! Cheese?
Just dessicate and flay...

Pray, O poets, not too long.
Come on not too strong.
Best to stay where you belong.
Potentate, thy prong.

Song of banshee, sirens, wail.
Never end, O tale.
Hollow, are you, garbage pail?
Blizzards contain hail...
