Legacy? Poem by Michael Kersting

Legacy?



The war scorched the planet

Once teeming with life

Is now a hot,

Lifeless,

Silent,

And dead planet

Spinning quietly,

Uncaringly on its axis

No wind

No clouds in the now green sky

All is still,

All is silent,

But for the soft lapping of the

Indifferent waves

The Great War came and went swiftly,

Obliterating

All life on the late, great planet Earth
