Descending

Descending After the rape, earth's surface trembles giving birth to dying trees. Grasping for a straw, breathing death's face of poison air. Rivers flow motionless and fish swell and bloat. The sun shifts, swallowed by the moon. Clouds hang with depression, on open doors of electric signs flashing phobia. Man’s ambition Eats nuclear waste. Barren lands wed drought to tomorrow's future, crushed under natures foot.
