So why do we continue making

Such apocalyptic decisions

Though they fell into an abyss,
I don't think it's the apocalypse.
So, nevertheless and all the same, 
I'll watch today's Dodgers game.

Apocalypse

All came to a stop;
Wintry ash fell to the ground
as the sky grew pale;
This is how things should have been -
I couldn't contain my smile.

years of tetter-totter angst

Relationship on the rocks
Haystack needle search weary

Apocalypse

Skies tumble, earths  tremble
    Hearts banging, demons twirking
         Shells blast, hours aghast
             Conscience fasts, nothing lasts

Fragrant steaming plate
Smoky spicy chile green
Warm satisfaction




Something foul burning
Within my bowels churning
Gas apocalypse

Premium Member who is coming

it is coming
he is coming
they are coming
Apocalypse or Christ returning?
windstorm or angels?
I am unsure, but know one thing
I am not prepared in any way

Man Running

stop following me 
with your knives
with your flowers

I think shadows
would be nicer 
in colours, I said, 

you agreed
doing your bit
for the apocalypse

A nightmare but oh this “great” team
Loves making the suffering scream
There’s no place to hide
While those on this ride
Think they’ll resurrect Hitler’s dream

Apocalypse

When summer nights grow longer as winter days get shorter
And the tired, worn out, spinning earth decides to skip a beat
The sunrise genesis over graveyards bear testament

Amidst the ties that binds;
Includes freedoms rings;
Sunlight sparkling eyes;
It now reigns so it cries;

The Nature of the Apocalypse

One day a vision of total destruction,
The next richness and warmth,
I sit on the hill,
And look into the future,
Every morn,
It changeth daily,
Contrast so vast it rips your heart apart.

Premium Member Apocalypse When

A blinding flash our planet will crash
To drab desertification
Burning up and drying out
To dust our monuments
Nowhere can we  hide
Bleaching  our bones
 With white heat
Caught cold
Doomed

Sensation

Greedy media give us sensation: the four horsemen who bring devastation. But if they were to stop, do a bad-good news swap, we’d bemoan Armageddon’s cessation.

Eternity Burns

Apocalypse kindles    
relighting the fire
Malignant denominators
melt from above
Savior disdained 
pontificate’s stain 
Tomorrow endemic
— in nuclear love

Future Bliss

In the future, life will be a breeze. Any right-thinking person agrees. Full of joy we’ll live on but some things will be gone: all the oxygen, harvests and trees.

Advice of the Doomed

Only mince words for society’s detriment.
Mollycoddle youth for the future’s corruption.
Beware of using political correction,
society’s wormwood; overdose for descent. 
Today’s apocalypse is due to discontent.

Premium Member Zombie Apocalypse Vs Social Collapse

The Walking Dead, the zombie apocalypse,
is very synonymous with social collapse.
Forget about zombies, because when the dollar crashes,
the same aberrant human behaviour will spread rapidly among the masses.
