It’s the pressure in the air as a thousand black-winged angels
descend upon the earth,
the ground underfoot that moves as if walking over a mass
of slithering serpents,
it’s the thunder booming ever louder in your heart that
leaves you trembling,
as the fierceness of the wind howling in your ears swallows all your words.
And you fear innate reactions as you fear to stay inert
yet the tingling in your skin forces moves abrupt and curt,
as your thoughts keep rolling over as a tumbleweed in flight
there is no way you can flee from the end that is in sight.
dang....scary....and has a prophetic feel to it...with a lot of unease, but yeah, its coming...no denying that...
ReplyDeleteWhat a scary post for Earth Day ( whenever that is or was) :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd yet we keep our eyes shut..
ReplyDeleteAh, but some ends mark new beginnings.
ReplyDeleteIt definitely feels like a prophecy, something prescient. Beautiful, as always.
ReplyDeleteThe end in sight is definitely a *shrug* "What me worry moment." Do you suppose shadow that the ground at the moment would be like a foot massage for a weary walker?
ReplyDeleteI agree with another of the comments above: The End has to also be a Beginning, it's what happens, nothing is lost.
ReplyDeleteIt's time for you to write book, to compile all these beautiful and insightful thoughts!! Go for it.
ReplyDeleteI hope that the end is a long way off. What seems like the end may just be another chapter.
