Poem
A shaman priestess Is deep in thought Engaged in Meditation on the fate Of the earth She is deep in the cosmic woods In the world between worlds Where she is communing With the spirits of the universe Who listen to her tale of woe She tells them Of the rise of the neo fascists And the refusal to address The possible end of the world Due to run away climate change She prays and prays And finally She receives an answer More a prediction It is all up to humans She has two visions Of a possible future Two contrasting visions One a dystopian nightmare The other an optimistic vision The first The neo fascists Seize control And usher in a dystopian nightmare That ends with utter destruction Nuclear war Nuclear winter Ends climate change As civilization ends And mankind retreat to caves And it happens In a blink of an eye In less than five years The world will end Game over civilization ends The second vision The optimistic vision Humanity wakes up From their collective night mare Throws off the neo fascist cabal And begin to change the world Making the economy works For all of us Not just the corrupt 1 percent The so-called masters of the Universe They are overthrown In a people’s power revolution All over the world People wake up Demand change And slowly the world Begins to recover And overcome The dark hours Of the present age The shaman priestess Returns home To spread the word It up to us To choose our fate The end is indeed near It is darker than you think But it is not over yet If we choose the path Of the cosmic light And overthrow The neo-fascist cabal And restore democracy And peace will break out And all will end well If not Well she says You have been warned The universe has spoken So, mote it be april 16 poem for April Poetry Challenge
