Apocalypse Examined Part Ii

from the boundaries you can find refuge on the mountain side experience has taught you the cities peril over a thousand times if you can't hunt that's where the food is the strong have families uprooted not following through means you're weak so you'll shoot just to prove it laws faded as soon as the system crumbled and stopped payment what was once a great land lies in ruins as a lost nation we lost faith in trust, human kindness, and compassion the second lives were less important than the rations with a few exceptions it's best to travel alone forgoe comfort and battle the cold, snowy surface gravel the road walk along it and who knows maybe you'll find a soul or maybe a fiery passion in your heart that's unbindable whatever you do watch your step and tread with care if you're lucky you may even escape death this year I speak of an apocalypse but let's get this clear this apocaplypse is my prison as I shed this tear ~Rolphy
