Billowing Clouds of SmokeA Poem by M. A. KilcorseHow to stay calm when the world is ending.Clouds; billowing. Erupt from my body And fills the air with a tempered haze. Mind; receding. All my troubles forgotten, Clearing the path for an enlightened gaze. Forgotten spiders, Clung to rafters, Fighting the force of a hurricane gale. And, for a moment, There is silence before the storm... While all the world is sinking. And, the temperature keeps rising, While the ice caps keep melting, And I start to get that feeling, That humanity's time is fleeting. So then my head starts spinning, And I feel my heart start racing; In my mind, I hear screaming, And still I get that feeling Yes I get THAT FEELING! Calm; remain calm. Deep breaths. Inhale. Exhale. Billowing clouds of smoke.
