In the sky,
an eclipse,
is the last thing you will ever glimpse.
A river,
crimson red,
carries many bodies of the dead.
Volcanoes,
go insane,
constantly spitting out the Earth's brains.
Into homes,
lava seeps,
I am delighted to hear them weep.
Buildings fall,
structures fail,
houses crumble and residents wail.
People run,
in the streets,
the roads fall apart under their feet.
A black hole,
in the ground,
swallows up everything around.
The abyss,
eats them all,
I laugh as I watch the humans fall.
The oceans,
vaporize,
leaving creatures to dry up and die.
The vapor,
does arise,
forming unnatural clouds in the skies.
These red clouds,
in the air,
rain down brutal liquids of despair.
This fluid,
kills the rest,
indeed, my wicked rain is the best.
One last thing,
I must do,
is make sure that this place stays subdued.
So I shoot,
my missile,
and fly away in my great vessel.
Brightly, I
wave goodbye,
as the Earth gives off it's final cries.

Wow. This is a pretty crazy piece that you have here.
lol I'm not sure what to think. You make this whole peice sound like alien invasion. Or were you pretending you were the alien or something? I don't know. It was pretty crazy though, like a scary movie you would watch on Friday night with your friends!

I liked how this was written, very nciely done. Gives me the shivers.

Very dark! I'm left wondering if you are (in the poem of course!) a ticked off alien
, or Osama in a really good mood hoping on some sand jet in the skies!!! Well written, scary as hell. There is always a crisis somewhere! Thank you for entering and best wishes!
