Ticking Time-Bomb. Poem by Ace Of Black Hearts

Ticking Time-Bomb.



A divided horizon.
Swallowing the unending poison.
Look another human is destroying.
Like what you see earn it.
Like what you eat earn it.
Like what you breath earn it.
The garbage rises up.
The smoke becomes the fog.
The pavement becomes the frying pan.
The animals run as fast as they can.
Not that it will matter in the end.
But somethings are worth defending.
No matter the cost, no matter if you stand before a tank.
On the brink.
Violence has incited.
These tick keep biting and spreading their incurable disease.
Ruthless greed.
All we see is the tail of the giant demon.
Scream with me, make them hear you.
I will not go silently in the night.
This is everybody's fight.
The science is there, we can't delay, we can't procrastinate or it will be too late.
The apocalypse in which four horsemen do ride.
Trust me when I say you can't just sit idly by.
Lives our at stake, the whole damn planet is on the line.
And there is no reason for the madness.
We have the answers, it's just a matter of creating the will to change.
We are all to blame, some for not speaking up, some for obscenely profiting from it.
Others using more the you need.
Yet more for not believing what's been proven.
This not a theory, but a reality.
But not one written in stone.
And time is the ticking time-bomb.
