Please rescue us from this godforsaken place
veritable hellscape, where angels fear ingress.
Just then an unexpected pleasant distraction

an immediate cove Van Halen brotherly bond.
Here and now would be the time to exercise
opportunistic exchange of communication and
experience unconditional acceptance despite

came the laughing stock of unrelenting torment
when a student at the school of hard knocks for
knuckleheads, which barely found me earning
a diploma graduating with flying colors - black,
blue, and red, yet interestingly enough the hues
of the home planet where creatures whom yours
truly desperately wanted to be taken to, no matter

countless bodies out beyond the outer limits of the
twilight zone hiding within dark shadows or maybe
lurking along the edge of night awaited homeboys
to regale me about learning the secret to survive
nothing short of a thermonuclear war, a bajillion
times more horrific than the tragedy that signaled

understatement) and hypnotized fixated on the raft
of burning mansions mega million dollar homes

resilience camaraderie witnessed salvation, where
random acts of kindness punctuated disequilibrium

planet in our solar system due to strong greenhouse

earning evening star appellation qua Earth's "evil twin"
because of its thick atmosphere of carbon dioxide
and sulfuric acid, which chemical tail poisonous to life.
