I'M Just Getting Started
I'M JUST GETTING STARTED
The concrete post is a lazy old thing.
Just sitting there doing nothing at all.
When things happened it was quiet.
The illegal President drove smugly past.
The war erupted and death swept the land.
A natural disaster incinerated the town.
An army of ghosts whistled forlornly by.
In a big roar the alien mothership landed.
With total silence God returned to earth.
All the while the concrete post observed.
It never uttered a word.
Not even when under pretty highly accurate laser fire.
In a pitter patter of dust the concrete post died.
But it wasn't the end of this old guardian.
Now it was a spirit of its former self.
And continued to rule this place and observe all things.
Especially the End of Days war.
God vshumansvs aliens.
The concrete post inherited the earth.
A planet riddled with death and scorched by fire.
Our old home.
