Environment

Existential fear abandoned for the sake of delusion

Nuclear freeze in her heart of alchemy’s shivers 

Veiled shadows dancing to the echo of silence

Intemperance sounding choral confusion of fate 

Rosemary scents a bunch of renegade petals 

On her journey of lone pipers on terminal bugles

Never one to retreat into apathy she shouts

Mere prophesies into winds of desperate change

Egos will shatter when the last call fades into 

No man’s shelter from the trap of human demise

To listen to her mute call is too dark to resist


Entropy swishes one more throw of loaded dice

Nirvana beckons at the gate of heavenly doubt

Virulent resistance comes to the court of justice

In naked despair Rosemary gathers seedlings of hope 

Revolves one penultimate time on an axis of evil

Onto pyres of satanic temptation led by the snake

Nemesis confronts agonists and die-hard villains

Mutates mutiny’s prayers into eternity’s pleas

Endless contortions spin the world as we know it

Nefarious quietude rises to a challenging saviour
	
Thor the God of Thunder loses patience and weeps …
