Oppression


Smash The ball leaves the stadium; the crowd stands up in awe A perfect hit The round baseball soars high into the sky leaving behind the world it once knew It leaves the green grass the tall trees and the rolling white lush clouds behind The earth watches in awe Chaos It enters the Earth atmosphere again, hot charred and black landing on green grass setting all in its path ablaze the streets are inflamed the houses melt, the people run through the street Chaos A figure approaches, picks up the blaze of flames Smash The ball leaves the earth again Its tail leaving a streak of fire through the night sky Sprinkling ashes over the united neighborhoods Chaos It enters, setting fire to the left over ashes This time burning beautiful communities to the ground Destroying trust and love Who will Smash the ball again?
