Firmament Poem by Kassem Oude

Firmament used to get angry
When people became fraudulent
Deluge on them like a sea
But those who were obedient

On their heads rained stones
Earth smoldered like desert
Thirst famine on them thrown
In kinds of torture was expert

Many villages did disappear
Right punishment in deep grave
Should they endure pain and fear
They did sins in enclave

Maybe currently it forgot
Its duties or has it enough
Sees not that principles rot
Crossed arms no word no cough

Sky would deteriorate
Killing as easy as in play
Stealing is legal at high rate
Should Heaven its word say.
