Message 2 the black woman

Black woman
Throughout it all
You've stood tall
The mother who gave birth
To us all
For your hard work
Thank you.

My condolences

You live a lifestyle that was deadly
But you didn't take those who told you, seriously
Now your friends & family
Are at your funeral
Walking past your open coffin
Looking blankly
At your dead body
My condolences
To your family.

2morrow

The day after today
What will it bring my way?
Today is filled with pain & sorrow
What will it be like 2morrow?
Maybe it will bring happiness
My way
Or be just like today
What the day after today will be like
I can't say
But I still look forward
To the next day.

Chicken & chips

Chicken & chips
Often brought by fast food addicts
Who love the finger licking taste
Fried fatty food
Unhealthy but cheap
Eaten for hunger's sake

Shop owners
Laughing all the way to the bank
At the expense
Of junk food loving customers
Who just want to fill their belly
With a cheap box of fried chicken & chips.

The coming ice age

An age
Where man reverts
To living in caves
In order for him to escape
The extreme weather conditions
And his pending fate

A case of history repeating itself
Only affecting specific parts of the world
If only man listened
To the repeated warnings
He had been given

The polar ice caps melted
Sea levels rose
Followed by widespread flooding

It's happened before
It will happen again
