THE PLAGUE

I started dancing under the rain, people would look at me like I was strange,

all afternoon the rain poured...and so did my pain,

so I just danced around on the ancient streets of this evil town,

words started being passed around, with no words or sounds.

yet, they speak with their evil eyes in the threads of time,

where their darkness played on so many people's minds.

I wept as I danced, holding no regrets, for the words I said,

when so many are dying because of a nasty plague.

I was hoping these evil people would stay away...because

they are carrying around a deadly disease, and they are trying to give it to me.
