The Darkness At Noon

The Darkness at Noon
A rapidly dying universe in astronomic confusion Star-studded galaxies swirling in chaotic motion Suns spontaneously self-combusting Planets erratically dancing Moons randomly colliding Black holes voraciously absorbing light There will be darkness at noon.
Nature in passionate rebellion Angry and wreaking unprecedented havoc Unexplained and unpredictable phenomena El Niño, global climate changes, earthquakes Catastrophic tsunamis and bleeding volcanoes Comets crazily streaking across the sky Run-away meteors bumped off their predetermined paths Harbingers of universal devastation The darkness is sure to come at noon.
Paradise regained and paradise lost Winged angels and horned demons clash in ferocious, eternal battle In an ever-expanding, contracting, and pulsating universe Silvery bolts of primeval lightning Ominous sonic booms of thunder As rabid gods furiously join in the wild feeding frenzy Fleeting glimpses of sweet heaven and a red, fiery hell Then absolute, perfect nothingness Make no mistake – at noon there shall be total darkness.

wow, a great depiction of the coming "end" that you have penned way down here on the list. So glad I went searching for an oldie of your to read. I found this one!!I think I remember this contest and that it never got judged, did it? Surely this would have won.

Thanks for commenting on this piece, Debbie. Even though we are aware of the consequencies of a world gone wrong, we seem to be heading to the path of self-destruction. Hopefully, we'll heed the signs before it's too late! Warmest regards. Pandita

Hi there it is all frightening, the more we learn the more we realize the scope of knowledge necessary to understand is beyond a single human. Thanks so much for stopping by my writing. Light & Love

A brilliant contest entry.. Loved the battle between evil and good presented in galactic destruction. "Winged angels and horned demons clash in ferocious, eternal battle"

Many, many thanks! I love astronomy and I tried to link the "darkness at noon" to a galactic connection.
