Future After 1984

"Four"

Four
With that word, the world came to an end
In flames of nuclear power
That man did send
Death 
Swept through Eastasia and Eurasia
The scale was tipped by one last breath 
Oceania’s 
Pride 

Three
Three giants threw spears at each other
A scorching war destined to be 
And Big Brother 
Died
Nuclear sunlight beamed through cracked glass
Waking up the proles, who soon cried
Seeing the grass

Two
Two strayed partners, ready to relive
The proles, the remade Eden due
One choice to live
