Lightning striking the Eiffel Tower

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How could you not realise?

Did you not think?

…that I would not notice,

we’re starting to sink.

Atmosphere’s electric,

could cut with a knife;

a lightning conductor,

where lightning strikes twice.

Our words are so crossed,

it’s a tangled up mess,

there’s really no hope,

we’re doomed! (More or less.)

So it’s pistols at dawn,

as we’re matched in a duel,

with our rapiers drawn,

adding fire to our fuel.

I know it’s no contest,

this match that we’re in;

like hell will you beat me,

I’m determined to win!

Micah's DNA

I have bad blood

within me,

it’s bad blood –

you see?

It goes to,

the bones, and

permeates me.

It stems from

my Father,

and is truly

a curse.

Bad blood

within,

chapter

line

and

verse.
