The End Of The World

15 entries-Of any kind, or style, written about how you think the world will end.
No two-liners.
No two-hundred-liners either.
Wow me.
I want to wipe tears from my eyes,
Or bask in gore.
Make me feel.

I have softspots for feelings of love, sorrow, anger, and loss in poetry I read.

If its going to contain adult content, please put that in the title.
