Antarctic ancient frost
is diminishing from the inside out
like a Brown Recluse
deathly ill bite does to its victim
soon catastrophic icebergs
will slip underneath the oceans brim
shifitng our axis in the
half blink of a battered eyelid
creating disatserour waves
no human has seen
or will again
the end is near
subzero temperatures
will turn the humid breeze
into icicle darts
travelling at the sound of speed
exploding fissures
impaling anything and everything
in its bloody path
like a sawed off shotgun blast
laughing and watching
us suffer in our
final living
moment
the end is nearer than
anyone wants to believe
emerging lava blankets
the southern hemispheres skies
with scorching steam
from caulderas of numerous
ice volcanoes just
about to erupt simutaneously
turning the foggy sky
to a violent reddish violet
like fresh bruises
rising on pale
epidermis
the nearing end
inches closer
every last body of water
begins to boil over onto shores
like the Illuminati's
sacrificial cauldron reaking of
bones marrow stuck
to the bottom like overcooked
and understirred pasta
drained in the collander after
swelling the spontaneously
combusting within gasping lungs
clogging airpipes with
shocking fear
striking like
lightning
don't blink
you'll miss the end
that's on our doorsteps
and roaming the streets of
our neighborhoods
do you reckon we could
near the end
on
our
own
terms
