Armageddon

As described in the book of revelations

A storm brews in the fragile skies

hanging in the balance 

an otherworldly sunrise

the winds of wild stallions, where is our valiance? 

shifting through the ashen trees

resounding a low hum, like a trillion bees

Mountains tumbling- drop into the Earth

the waves lose control, corkscrew, and roll

the trumpets sound again of death and rebirth

executed is the darkest imaginable scroll

the birds that fly over, now lie on the ground

all of humanity, fear... and spellbound

Whales line the beaches, a break in the water

death, destruction, and endless pyre

the pale faced horse- a formidable trotter

all that are left be consumed in fire

hold your loved ones close, your daughters and sons 

there is no escape... when the pale faced comes

This is positively chilling. Yet, exciting and inevitable.

I try very hard to write a variety, both with different subjects and a balance of some dark and some light poetry. Your comments tell me it worked with this one, thank you :)
