The sky is orange,
& people are running.
It’s turning deep red
& people are running.
The air is still
& people are running.
It smells of sweet
& people are running.
Plants are dying
& people are running.
Trees are shriveled
& people are running.
Animals are decaying
& people are running.
Birds are falling
& people are running.
Buildings are melting
& people are running.
Roads are liquid
& people are running.
The oceans are lakes
& people are running.
The lakes are arid
& people are running.
The ground is soft
& people are running.
The sun’s coming closer
& people are running.
The end is near
& people are running.
The finish has come
& people are running.
The earth is jejune,
But someone is running.
