View From the Second Comet - Act 1

Out of its axis In negative spin Our planet we call earth Is diminishing Three days earlier A comet struck home From the black of the universe On its trajectory roam The world as normal Went about its day Parents worked While their children played We had heard before That a comet may strike But the observatory in Hawaii Said we were well out of its sight But unknown to us all It had split into two The smallest section Towards us flew As it broke from the main body In its twisted break Its angle changed We now just await On the day of the impact Half the world was asleep While the other half Were already in weep It struck a volcano Near the Indian Ocean As fissures opened In lava spewed motion As we watched on the news We could hardly believe Our planet being obliterated Will we have time to grieve On CNN A report comes in The shuttle Liberty is following As the second part of the comet spins It too has changed Its trajectory course To our planet it heads For now we all, fear the worst Presidents, Prime Ministers Are all on the phone Asking, What can we do To stop this destructive roam? http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/fantasy-8.php
