I Pray There Is a Hell Fire
I PRAY THERE IS A HELL FIRE
I PRAY THERE IS A HELL FIRE
No more do i long for the river.
I shan't play in the sea.
I won’t step foot on the water
That's not the life for me.
My hero is Jeremy Wade.
And all of his insight.
I can now avoid 'malaria and parasites;
Fright flight …
Flee the fleas and parasites
i now have
Insight… and a healthy fear of
Malaria, and "covid 19"…
I need "Deet lotion",
When living near lakes, or near oceans.
River monsters,
Fish demons
The answers are clear
Stay clear … of squid
Depth and leagues
Under earth’s liquid.
No more do i long for the river.
I shan't play in the sea.
I won’t step foot on the water
That's not the life for me.
My hero is Jeremy Wade.
With all of his insight about river monsters
I can now avoid 'malaria and parasites.
But now how do we avoid
Humans in cars with flashing lights?
White humans, killing black humans?
We can now avoid, parasites and
Demons living leagues under the sea…
Jeremy spoke about cannibals that said,
“pork tasted closest to human flesh at best” …
People contend with plenty conditions,
When the echoes of the wild is so near.
Pythons near playgrounds, causes fear
There are squads to remove them;
When in fact “the wild” appears too near.
In america it’s not bugs or fish or alligators
That be our predators, it’s the white hunters,
I am afraid they prey on human prey.
They wear blue uniform or white sheets,
And we can’t spray them with "DEET"…
They don’t kill to eat; but out of hate
They have been known to feed our
Babies to the gators…and the other day
One white lady coughed deliberately in a Spanish
Babies face, what a disgrace….
Oh god i pray there is a hellfire;
And a hero appears in this place.!
