There Are Those

There are those who flame out in a snuffed heat of passion They take their burial pose: Cremated desires dressed in silver urn ashes — Withering thoughts of unrepentant fashion Yea, there are cursed those, whose premature exit is a perfidious path Anger lit eyes, reflecting a heart stone cold Carrying so much incendiary hatred inside their frozen souls O there are legions of those, so brimstone willing to go down that killing road Led to the bottomless abyss place, dragged there with a reprobate hook in their nose There’s plenty of burning cross those, serpentine flying with the nether bound, carrion crows Just how many? Only God truly knows

...and there are those who sometimes come and sometime goes... Hello my friend Freddie. I often think of you. I like deep and this one does. I hope you are well. My country has gone to hell here and I wish I had more time for my Soup friends , time is such a rare commodity now. Never doubt my love. In 8 months I hardly wrote a thing. But change is afoot. Lets see.
