"The States that we are in."

"The States that we are in."

by:

Virgilio F. De leon Jr.MD

I 

The Fires keep on raging

And the bodies keep arriving

The Tears continue flowing

And the cost continue piling

II

The Fear keeps on rising

As people keep on Grumbling

Simple things are obvious

but people keep Complaining

III

And so the Loop of Hope-Despair

As we all are locked in a chain

In a world full of the dying

And those left with that pain.
