No more rhythm, no more rhyme
Out of step and out of time
The planets in their orbits falter
Our destiny we fail to alter
Moving on towards the end
Still we do not comprehend
Through the earth`s contamination
Lies our own extermination
No more hope and no more light
In the darkness of the night
The sun with all her glory waning
Stars as burnt-out beacons fading
On and further on we go
Dark and darker yet to grow
The pathway to obliteration
Then complete annihilation
So close now. A very nice write Valerie. Thankyou. Regards..Sharon.
So stark reminder of what is to come. A wake up call if nothing else. I'm giving you a ten.
You never cease to amaze me... yet again your poetry is stunning!
A well written verse of so bleak a view, let's hope it's essence we don't eschew, while in contemplation I have a brew and try to sort the situation. Time to think of our impending annihilation while all the nihilists are on vacation, as they won't mind our inconsideration and we can think without the added aggravation. A provocative and finely write to motivate even entrenched procrastinators alright.
Fantastic imagery................compelling and well written
Great poem. Certainly reflects the nihilism I feel constantly in my own consciousness and I see unstoppably marching into all of man as a social being. The path towards annihilation seems set and inescapable now.
A well written and very truthful account of our current conditions, humans have indeed become the earth's parasite.....
