Two Hells

One day from this hell I’ll escape To the hell of the lesser disgrace I’m fed up with the country of apes Imitating they are human race Their antics are no more a fun How the apes idolize alpha male Is painful to watch, so I’ll run There’s no reason to stay, no avail However, the more decent hell Is way too much overprotected If you lack the most horrible bio to tell Most likely, soon you’ll be directed Back to where you come from, because This superior hell is considered asylum For the millions of seekers, and those Who slip through and police never finds them Between these two hells there’s a space With a runaway line to the skies There’s no promise if I get my place But to find it I’ll pay any price Though you can sneer: both hells Is an overused, flat metaphor Mate, I’m glad you can’t hear those bells See, another one’s coming, and more.
