I am more powerful than the combined armies of the world. I have destroyed more men, women and children than all the wars of all nations. I massacre thousands of people every year. I am more deadly than bullet and I have wrecked more homes than the mightiest guns.
In the United States alone, I steal over 50 million dollars each year. I spare no one and I find my victims among the rich and poor alike, the young and old, the strong and weak. Widows know me to their everlasting sarrow. I loom up on such proportions that I cast my shadow over every field of labor.
|
I lurk in unseen places and do most of my work silently. You are warned against me, yet you heed me not. I am restless, merciless and cruel. I am everywhere, in the home, in the schools, in the factory,on land, in the air and on the sea.
I bring sickness, degradation and death, yet few seek me out to destroy me. I crush, I main, I devastate. I will give you nothing and rob you of all you have.
I am your worst enemy-
I AM A RAMPANT FIRE!
