Epoch of Mass DeletionA Poem by LegionA Writer's Cafe exclusive. Something I have been thinking about since the accidental deletion of everyones' writings. Giving the situation similiar status to the extinction of the dinosaurs.
Epoch of Mass Deletion
Syllables graze Upon the page Amongst similes And metaphors alike As onomatopoeia buzzes about, Alliterating thought, Unaware of the coming plight.
Verbage soars Through the sonnet fields Seeking shelter From the nature Of haiku, Its story, once upon a time, Dwelt within poetic flight.
Wisdom roams, Adjectively defined, While hunting punctuation Beneath participles dangling From ideas blooming In the brilliance of thought, Birthed in both darkness and light.
The scene tranquil Suddenly disrupted. Words run-on, rampant, Sentenced to silence As the finger of God Falls upon "delete" Without rhyme or reason in sight.
