When it starts to rain arrows,
one has to get a metallic shield
to make sure he or she is not pierced
by the fiendish assegais falling to the sky,
looking for a victim to pierce
when the sky vomits fire
one has to be near a pond
to make sure, he or she can
be extricated from the jail of heat,
as soon as ones body is captured
No matter the case,
no matter the problem,
no matter the conflict
one has to see it
and prepare,
it's all written in the sky
it's up to us to see
and prepare.
