Earth's Final Night
The suns warmth fades
Beneath a clouded sky of blood.
The Angels cry for aid,
As cities crumble into mud.
The birds of the sky
fled from their homes.
We watch as they cry,
Finding nothing but bones.
The fish of the sea,
They swim for the deep.
They yearn to be free to take another leap.
And of man, the ruler, the image of God,
We descend into madness,
Only a fraud.
