Short Span of Time
Short Span of Time
Was in space of time such a short span
Clear river is where clean water ran;
After a while when we had waited,
Water did became dirty and desecrated.
In Flint, worried people there will find;
Where all the bad water was left behind;
There no longer could hear nature calling;
Babies are bawling and hair out is falling.
Energy lacked and breaths became short;
Soon died and to heaven God did escort;
They had looked back at their pitiful town;
Each sad one there in sorrow would drown.
