Inferno Poem by ENOCH JOHN

Fast is the beat of my heart,
Slow is my cadence up life's steep hill,
Loving is my glance at you my darling,
Bestowed from above are twin jewels of hope and love,
To fight against the raging decadence.

There is a great war fought on the earth,
It's a warfare in the battleground of the mind-
A fierce inferno, a raging hell.
And fast is the beat of my heart,
Slow is my cadence up life's steep hill,
And persevere I will, persevere I will!
