Whisper In My Mind

There is a whisper in my mind that tempts me to fear....

....as death grips its silent hold

.....and governments slide on their lies

There is a whisper in my mind that tells me to flee....

....as locusts munch us into famine

....and the earth quakes with premonition

There is a whisper in my mind that trains me to follow....

...as whispy markets crash

...and  panicked buyers hoard

Oh rage RAGE against this exponential storm!

For its ever etched trickle,

moves with ominous pace,

ever faster,

collecting inexorably

into a raging waterfall
