On The Verge

On The Verge Beady eye, horse riding dictator Replacing peace with violence Using conventional weapons against A sovereign, democratic nation His wanderlust and ideologic hatred Remain unabated Now beginning to see non-edible mushrooms Rising in the sky On the verge of world war Inevitable retaliation Fire, destruction, and death globally Nuclear winter to follow No winner Senseless Destruction of our world
