Old Monroe Destroyed

Old Monroe will be destroyed He does not like the fact That many of His children Have to leave here unemployed. Old Monroe will be gone. He never wanted it to last This long. Satan's power Never wanted to see this Place flourish. Student's who are here Are getting their brains Malnourished by treacherous Teachers and punched by Phony principals. God's children who are here Are getting their spririts Malnourished by money-hungry Preachers who are turned on By church hoes. People still believe that they Are smaller than they actually Are because the evil spirit Of racism drives old Monroe's car. Some believe that they will Forever be poor and really Love God and are often treated Odd and never given a chance To actually advance will dance In new Monroe and advance After all of the old will be destroyed Some lives will be spared And after that the city will be rebuilt And the inferior infrastructure repaired The many talented who left old Monroe Unemployed will come back home to New Monroe where kingdom-minded Prosperity will roam. wrote 12-2-10 based on Jeremiah

I stopped reading when you used the word Satan. It turned it into a fairytale.
