No Where To Run

This merciless invasion
A wolf in incubation
Deadly maturation
Mandatory isolation

Fear upon fear amplification
World-wide gargantuan
A new generation
Of lives in detention

Many made concessions
Amongst frustrations
Swilling in the stagnation
Of nature's destruction

Unmerciful predation
No retaliation
Where is salvation
On this train of extinction

Oh God help the nations
Escape this damnation
Save us from ruination
And give us resurrection

G'day Timothy ... I can certainly read the frustration in your verse Timothy. Down here we're nearly all advised to stay home. The fines are very steep for defying - stay safe Timothy - Lindsay

I'm with you here all the way, my friend. We could use a miracle in the supernatural sense, at this point! :) gw

Thanks Richard when I was a kid I never dreamed of such happenings. I just thought about putting a baseball card in the spokes of my bike and other kid things.
