North and South down
A fiery crash upon the screen
Scenes of disarray
The confusion of the shocking sight
And faces of dismay
All around the world stood still
And slowly held its breath
Praying for the rescue mission
To minimise the death
The black cloud appeared silently
Consuming all the sky
And filled the hearts and minds of those
Reverberating nearby
The horror and the desperation
For those waiting to descend
The time elapsing swiftly
Towards the bitter end
The tragic sight of North implode
A fate so unexpected
The desolation felt by all
When South disconnected
Cries of disbelief ring out
The screams can only drown
As the damning news reports
North and South are down
