The Sky Wept

Ash and tears For the species man As the infiltrating tentacles of self destruction Unstoppable Spread from hand to hand The earth hid its eyes So the moon would not see As she whimpered and cried For what was to be The sea thrashed in rebellion Displaying its hate and pain While the creatures of the ocean Floated on salty waters Decaying upon white sands In protest of their demise Neptune's children Called upon the universes strength The poison cast upon the waters Man in golden goblet drink When the sky wept black tears The earth hid its eyes The oceans roared with anger The moon wailed and cried This poem is copyrighted and stored in author base.
