When the Trumpet Sounds

Who is the bear?
                                             That's running around scared;
                                           Telling you what's good for you;
                                                                                    And who is the lion?
                                                                             That's got people crying;
Sewing grace;
Has NO place;
                                             For intolerance micro chips;
And who is the man;
that has a better plan;
                                             Colored  offered up fossils;
What!!!
                                            When life is redundant fowls;
                                              When the trumpet sounds;
