Black Death
The ooze keeps flowing; bleeding, the earth cries, "Someone help!! Stop the leaching; stop the black death!!" Cover the wounds of greed, cover the sickness. Help the innocent lives, being destroyed by this flow. Pulsing, life of the USA, our heartbeat is weakening with each gallon lost. Who will revive the country? Who is our super hero? Who has the...
