My name is Larry Anthony Harris #01700519 and I found this submission from on the wall, so I decided to send you some of my work that I hope you will share. I made copies of some of it, so I would have my own copy to keep. Will you please kindly sign me up to be a part of your group, so I can receive mail from you and continue to send you my work to share however you feel. Here is my address and contact information. I look forward to hearing back from you.
Sincerely, Larry Anthony Harris

“Hell Bound”

Covid 19, get out of this place
Pack up your bags and get out of my face
Leave here quickly, as fast as you came
Because of you, lives will never be the same
You have no feelings, for death is your goal
Your path of destruction, it really shows
People are scared of your cowardly attacks
The lives you took, we can never get back
Whether man, lady, girl, or little boy
The evil you bring, you seem to enjoy
But listen to me, and listen very well
I know you’re straight from the pits of hell
So pack up your bags and get ready to leave
Because your days are numbered, I do believe
For evil you are and evil you will return
Back to the pits of hell, where you will burn!
