Armageddon

Today I got a dream
The world was ending
Global warming stroked up
Everyone rushing for the rescue
Stampede produced all over the cities 

Roads were blocked
And everyone's head was cocked
Billionaires got their way to the rockets
The rest fighting in vain to survive
My mind blazed in confusion
As I couldn't find a motive for their struggle

Oblivious as it was
Survival and peace was their cause
But why not hug your loved ones
Rather than bleeding all along
Why not share the limited time with each other
Rather than wasting time waiting for a miracle
Which wasn't going to occur

A creative write. I have seen many miracles. When your "Armageddon" comes things will be like hell. Have a great/blessed  day...............

there really are no miracles, you're sure, just the raw, inhospitable feeling of abandonment. I placed myself among those affected by the armageddon of your poetry, it would be chaotic, terminal. very good, like all your texts.
