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.
