Angry Eyes

Angry Eyes

   Earth,earth strangling earth
   I ride with you toward extinction
   Your oceans thickening like gravy,smothering and suffocating
   You are becoming a latrine
   Your trees are twisted and contorted
   your flowers moan,their faces distorted
   Your clouds once white,now yellow
   sick with jaundice
   Your rivers like veins spill out over it's banks
   your fish get tangled in your scorched hair,tangling 
   all in all I feel the earth strangling
   I look up to the moon wearing the reaper's dark hood
   suddenly it falls out of the sky
   and it's hungry red mouth sucks out my angry eyes.
