I Hear Say

by Carol Phillips

God is angry, I hear say
Frogs sit on lilies and cry wah

 

Winds blowing, seas rising, waters flooding
Trees rip, sands shift, homes crumble

 

Mantle breaking, ground heaving, splitting
Walls fall, buildings tumble, dogs sniff death

 

Mountains rumbling, fiery rock spewing
People scramble, sacred cows saved

 

Eagles fighting, lambs praying
Multitudes flee, inns are full

 

Trucks plowing, bullets raining
Songs linger, drowned in cries

 

God is angry, I hear say
Why then do innocents pay
