Terminus

Like a monolith I am,

Entrapped.

Screeching for air,

I take a plunge,

losing my,

conscience.

 

As a bird stranded in a chimney,

or a fly glued to a web,

I am,

constantly,

smitten,

for my opinions.

 

I’ve saw through the eye of time,

gazing at earth’s crystal glow,

as the souls will die,

and the blood will flow,

forever.

 

Alas, I am but an old seer,

I carry my prophecies along,

to death’s cradle,

No one will sing a song,

of my,

failure.

 

It is saddening to think,

That mankind will face the brink,

Soon writing their prayers in ****** ink,

As the worlds population quickly shrinks,

and humanity disappears,

just like their ancestors,

when the meteor comes crashing down,

screaming will be the only sound,

Terminus.
