The Promised Land

The promised land,land of sweet honeycomb, chocolate fountains,the land of green pastures paradise it is,were jinnee's make their own wishes fairie's make dreams come true. Toddlers depart on a journey of a thousand miles, forbidden path, through the valley of darkness destination the promised land,Evil roam among the living,phantoms zombies present in the absence of sight.the choosen once pleasure the sweetness of Hot chilli pepper,faith conquers fate,the mist have gone the light shines from the promised land Ahead lies the river of Jordan,those who arrived on Oxen travelled on paved path of roses and butterflies,enjoyed the singing of birds, embraced by the ocean of stars and crystal moon shall feel their hearts ripped from their bodies,dreams shattered not all shall cross the river Jordan,they will be consumed, punishment awaits them for they have sinned.they will set foot on the land of hope as slaves,living of the sweat of their mates.bitter consequences of deception and Ignorance.
