Cosmic Dust Spirals

cosmic dust spirals, supernatural storms born the Goldilocks zone Free verse ~ A quadrant of marble missiles born Ever since, A dream catcher catches dreams Jupiter catches meteorites and asteroids Super-sonic projectiles pass Jupiter's gravitational shield Shoots like V-1 rockets, destination is Mars Seeded life exists there, nevermore Saturn survived The Red planet bleeds from beneath its crust Lava flows from its core... graphite composite, carbon spheres, laced with crystal ice Craters and gorges are created kilometers deep Cave creatures hibernating, awaken from nocturnal sleep Catastrophic events unfold... the moon impacted by brazen bombardiers headed for the new frontier The moon takes mega-hits The Earth tilts on its polar axis Crimson tides flood marshlands and lagoons Place prehistoric creatures roam and graze Cosmic dust particles of the moon chokes earth's atmosphere The sun's torch extinguished Like an eclipse Demons from the core escape shackles They tear the invisible rift, mimics paper ripping Chains can not bind Lucifer's legions, anymore Bat-like winged creatures with horns Gargoyles Such astonishing-force! 10,000 volcanoes erupting simultaneously There's no haven to hide Only deep sea creatures survive The brontosaurus, T-Rex, raptor... vaporized in minutes Solidified into petrified rock - place they once stood Invincible creatures extinct Scanning the horizon and extraterrestrial skies, I ponder... what if another catastrophic disaster happens The volcano erupts ever so, many -- many moons A supernova, two stars colliding, has triggered this domino disaster

This poem is Awesome! I really enjoyed the read on this. I wish I could have given this a 10 instead of a 7 but this is how high the bar goes.
