Premium Member Self-Portrait with My Shoebill Friend at the End of the World
It’s Sunday, and I’m drawing myself again, third time this week. This version features a haunted air fryer, a coupon for free emotional labor, and Janice— the shoebill, wearing my ex’s hoodie and threatening the moon. She’s perched on a folding chair I stole from a church basement, clutching a Slim Jim like a relic. Her breath smells like copper wiring and vengeance. She doesn’t blink. She’s...

It’s the end of the world, babe Since the second of May this year Nothing can save us, maybe A miracle, but it’s unclear As it always happens with miracles They get lost on the next day Which appears to be satirical But a few can see it this way It’s the end of the world, now It starts from this very date Write a...

The End of the World
Two cats saw the end of the world. Both felt its pain— They hid in alleys, Keeping the shadows at bay, But the visions that haunted them, Still remained. Both found homes, Comforting and fulfilling— Yet both dealt with the end of the world— So differently. One saw it as a reminder of death. All would shrivel, Nothing would remain, Everything would be replaced by pain. The other, Saw it...

The World is Like the Moon
A repaired planet looks like the moon. Where humans would die Where war would lose With a deep black sky And a hindering light The lids of your eyes And the sun, unviewably bright. I’m sad like a crater. I made a crater on the moon. I’m bad because I made a crater. Forever, it shall loom. Even in a healed Earth, even on the moon. The...

April 3 Look at the sky!
April 3—Look at the sky! One day the world woke up To the impending end As a new asteroid. Quickly dubbed The doomsday asteroid Headed to Earth. Everyone looked up At the doomsday asteroid As the world scrambled To send space missiles To blow it away. Brazilians, Chinese, the EU, Koreans, Japanese, Iraqis, Iranians UAE, Israel,. Indians, Pakistanis, Russians, Saudis, South...

The End of the World
Take a minute, Close your eyes, Tilt your head up to the sky. Do you feel that peace? It's so serene. Take a break from the world and just be free. But soak it in Because it won't last long. Soon you’ll come back and the peace will be gone. The real world is nice, but it brings on stress. The thought of...

What If It Was The End Of The World?
In twilight's grasp, the world meets its demise, Oh, Christian soul, who claims the sacred name, Within God's church, where fervent spirits rise, Contemplate now, the end, a burning flame. What if it was the end, the final call, Would jests and levity your stance define? Regret, a haunting echo, would enthrall, As time, a gift, was squandered, not divine. The freedom granted...

The End of the World As We Know It
Where will it end? When will it end? Or will it only get worse? It’s the twenty-first century curse. Some say we’ve had it too easy Become too complaisant The thought makes me queasy How did we not know? Were we all so blind? So thoroughly aligned Our thoughts combined In one voice A voice increasingly weak Victims of doublespeak But is it too late? Must we merely accept our...

Premium Member The Third Wrong War: the Deadliest One To Fight
No mustard bombs are dropped No audible or silent shots are fired No planes are necessarily blown or hired No flags are deliberately flown or flapped No soldiers crossed the borders To fight, to conquer, to kill or to die No generals sent orders To invade, to dismantle and to decry However, citizens all over are coughing Vomiting blood, suffering, and passing COVID-19 is the...

"The end is near," the short-wave said. "Before midnight, all will be dead." I aim to leave my baggage here. For my warted nose should I fear? April fifteen and taxes due Can I afford to be so lax As to ignore my yearly tax? Pinch me, pinch me, I hope ‘tis true. Will my love share claret and cheese Before God winnows wheat...

Suppose the world might come to an end tonight The earth, as we know it, heaving a last gasping sigh, Whether by divine providence, or some fool’s delight, We have no way of knowing when the time is nigh. The earth, as we know it, heaving a last gasping sigh, Its moon turning to blood and its oceans seething We have...

The Devil
Call him the son of the devil To wear the mask of a rebel A star to rise above the rest One day to arise as the best The man of sin and his level Call him the son of the devil A fallen angel clips its wings For a lusting of bitter things The falling away can't be far By a sign of...
