In The Beginning...

The wildlife of the forests

Galloping, crawling, scattering,

The harmony of the ecosystem

The essence of beauty upon Earth

 

The sea and all that inhabit it

From the irredescant coral reef

To the abyss of the ocean floor

All life enveloped in a circle

 

The human race and their cities

Eracting to the skies, higher, higher,

To build and reflect this world.

And acquire dominance and understanding.

 

A man working for tomorrow's promotion

Companies building onto the future

An expecant mother planning for her newborn

A single tree beginning to grow...

 

The signs of tomorrow beget themselves

Alas, they are the subjects of fate

For a single blue jay hears...

A thundering whistle.

 

Silence.

 

Oh! The destruction that ensues!

The earth trembles and lava scorches

Every organism falls to the ground

For here lies the next part of the cycle.

 

Armageddon.
