The Countdown

Ambition thinks it has plenty of time. Effects proving a rapturous countdown. With a certain kind of secret weapon. Nations avoided the truth they found. Where hopes and dreams are intertwined. Faith believes this will make us strong. When virtual reality intrigues the mind. We can be forgiven if we got it wrong. Recognize out of the multitude we see. Some familiar faces are hanging around. That seemed to confound the mystery. Reminds the world of the former home. But this decaying world is not our own. Warn of the realms with events not seen. Polar axis shift, in cataclysmic succession. Of pestilence, floods, plagues, and famine. The countdown is approaching a deadline. Money making is the new social media, Thinking there is still plenty more time. To gamble every dime and lived as inclined. A new dawn is approaching the end time. Sent from heaven for another realm to find. That world is hidden in serenity more refine. By a heroic star painting images on the mind
