Humoring of the Ashes

Elephants will head for higher ground 
before a Sunami makes landfall.
The flocks will sing desperate songs.
Flying quickly from devilish fires.

While donning his three-piece silky suit.
Man-unkind kneads another infinity bomb.
Glassy moths nibbling away his soul. 
Leaving their powder to humor his ashes.
Stupid-stupid man, a pawn to his ego.
