Emit No Evil, Live On Time

Emit no evil, hearken! Men of the underworld Inflict pain, invite the wrath Things fall apart, the doom's day looms Nemesis swings into action Oust every explosion otherwise... Emit no evil, hearken! Vampires of the universe In a short while, gone the time Let go of evils, offspring of the devil Live for humanity In it abounds ebullience Vacate every fiendish introspection Eschew evil, limited time have you here Over the course of time, Not again shall your presence remain Then thy legacy speaks In every village and municipal Making such exit agonizing to all souls Emit no evil, limited time have you here

Dear Adeniji, you truly have your fingers on the pulse of our days and are the scribe that faithfully understands, relates and wrings his hands in anguish at our seeming inability to render change in the paths of those pursuing evil. The path of well being is rutted and all uphill. I hope to meet you there one day to grasp your hand, so we can help each other up, blessed poet.

On our own we can’t overcome our nature. There is a lot to consider within this piece.

Yes, that is the reality. In the end righteousness shall prevail. Thanks, Richard.
