Revelations and Future Generations

A poem I wrote describing the creation and destruction of the human race tied into Bible law, I am no way religious but was interested in recreating the seven days of creation into something darker

Once a beautiful Earth, ‘let there be light’

A snake with a sly voice, apple of temptation and lots of spite

Satan’s rebellion filtered with sun

Heaven’s skies, atmosphere’s grace

Crystal lakes and evolution’s haste

 

Flowering plants grew underfoot

Yin Yang, trees of creation, stumps cut

Demons cast down to the garden of Earth

Cunning Government intoxicating Earth’s central nerve

Over heating, not just fleeting, years of sweat and plight

People short fused, feeling used and abused, any excuse for a fight.

 

The Earth in the oven, gas mark eight, heated mammals, growing hate

The sea dissolved, evaporation, all that was left by fate

Emergency service exhausted, human race demoted to a fool

A war in the streets, without the cavalry: perfect time for mob rule.

No control, no society, no law

The third of the organized World War

Earth’s crust burnt, frozen core.

 

The country fights, street wars, turn international

The national service again becomes fashionable

The soldiers in streets: confused and trigger happy, little chain of command

Innocent people, gunned to the ground, no ransom note, no demand

Civilian blood flows to the rivers, bombs and sirens: hand in hand

Nuclear holocaust came with time, inevitable truth

A world order of chaos, no poll, no voting booth

Total anarchy, the devil we know, man spreads its disease…

 

A disease of evolution, technological revolution, a satanic tease

Satan again rebelling against perfection, all that survives: natural selection.

People hysteric, no idea what they’re fighting for

Skies light in vast red explosions, which swirl and pour

Animals flee, chaotic growling, attacking without reason

A man’s best friend no longer present, with a failed master, running from treason.

Tornados roar, sporadic, hurricanes soar, sadistic

The sun hides for its own health, death becomes a statistic

Volcano’s erupt, a flood of red, burning the environment, dusted and dead

 

The land spoilt, abandoned towns, refugees not clothed or fed

Left among the devastation, the Governments fault through hesitation.

The Earth’s seduction, mother of nature’s w***e, an environment’s mutual masturbation

Skies covered with ash and smoke, clouds darken in rage as the people choke

‘Darkness’ spreads, no light beneath, the sky blue’s broke

Eclipse of the sun, nature’s beast.

Grey winter snowing soot, covering all in a blanket, eyes wide shut

A day of rest, a silent Earth, dead and rotten, the world’s rebirth

Human kind extinct, dust to dust from man’s instinct

Attitudes of rebellion, Bible’s law…

 

Seven days, died in vein, nothing left, nothing more.
