Top of the Mountain

Extension cords like life discordant stretch out electric Powerless they fail the families stumbling in the dark Who turned off the lights?! Late night is no time to have these natural catastrophes Volcanoes need to respect hard working people in their sleep Earthquakes need to wait till morning To have respect for hard working common people Have common decency for Pete's sake Pete is sleeping too and pets are shaking in their boots All four of them if I'm not mistaken Ash explodes volcanic with its spontaneity debris Blows the top clear off the mountain side In that second red lava flows labyrinthine twisted Down to take the village with inhabitants away To fall on the darker side of nature There needs to be more laws enacted on creation This criminal activity must stop...starting at the top
