I Have Nothing To Say Today

I have nothing to say today
By Stanley Russell Harris
The new mad author

I have nothing to say today.
As the world is still a mad place, I say.
So why should I write in rhyme.
While man kills man all the time!

Why do they?   I do not know.
Unless they read those words just so!
And that is to kill all unbelievers.
Or those who insult certain leaders!

Of course no one should others kill.
Although that way, they might seek their thrill.
Alas, when it’s then their turn to go.
Down to hell they’ll surely flow.

If in bits, they are blown away.
Saint Peter, only innocents will repair I say.
Others, who are really bad.
Will be burnt in hell and that’s so sad.

Oh!  I was not writing today.
But all these words just came my way.
And that is all I’ve got to say, today.
