A taint so strong is in the air,

It saturates your skin and hair.

The faint of heart had best beware,

This blight is strong, so all take care.

Some say it comes from Apathy,

Lack of care from you and me.

I say places we cannot see,

Are spawning grounds of this misery

Your mouth goes dry and skin goes numb,

You’ll start to feel a little glum,

This is Satan’s chewing gum,

And hell is where it all comes from.

Fire erupts randomly,

sixes appear in groups of three,

And then a sudden violence spree,

Hell on Earth is what you see.
