Check out my acrostics!
Bombs, bombs everywhere.
London torched, no one was safe. Fortunately
In case of an emergency, everyone had shelters from
The V1 or doodlebug bombs which made this sound
Zing zing. Silence. Boom!
Because of this, you have to go to the shelter
Or die. You could have the
Morrison or Anderson shelter to keep you safe from
Bombs.
Long time bombs fell
On London.
Nothing could stop the
Deaths. You would get
Out of your shelter to find your house was
Not there.
Winning the
War was the only thing
Important
Inside the Brits’ heads
ADOLF HITLER SUCKS
A man of true, pure evil
Devilish and slaughtering,
Over – racist and anti – semitic
Laws against the Jewish and the disabled
Frowning on non – Germans
He had killing squads, and used them
In a time of riots and hyperinflation
Took over Germany with the media
Lots of ludicrous laws
Everywhere, he had propaganda
Ruling, as a dictator
Standing as the chancellor/president
Unholy evil of the nazis
Craziness of himself
Killed himself at the end
So never, ever be like him.
Terror confusion chaos,
Smoke rubble chaos,
People screaming chaos,
All the while,
The bombs rain down.
Trapped underground chaos,
Heat radiating chaos,
Curtains of destruction chaos,
All the while,
London burns.
Death doom chaos,
Horror shock chaos,
City struck chaos,
All the while,
The bombs rain down.
No escape chaos,
Homes ruined chaos,
Looters feast chaos,
All the while,
London burns.
When will it end chaos,
Powerless anger chaos,
The devil applauds chaos,
All the while,
The city is destroyed.
