Man's Troubles

James Vincient Johnson 1952 (Algoma WV)



Man destroys
What man does not understand
Man destroys
By using tools of this land
Man destroys
Others to gain a place in the sand
Man destroys
The past with the future in hand
Mans destroys
Everything without reason nor season
Bang Bang - Do not cry
Welcome AI
