Eternal Full Moon

 

Fitful angels squirming fraught with red burned demons                                           caught by fishermen drawing final breaths from Arctic seas.                                                                                          A catch once wild and free culled fatefully finally                                                                 crept up behind angry wasted fragile habitat left hungry.

Waste disposal plastic Armageddon’s moon still full.                                                                                                                                  Ocean fills all space across the globe without trace of Life once bestowed.                                                                            Legacy of man’s deceit leaving one hollow receipt:                                                                                                A chaos now beyond reproach from earth’s defeat.

All the rest of time-Man’s currency                                                                                          Unknown by Earth’s design rhymes no season’s change.                                     Back before the dawn of man:

Collision forces Life: Eternal Truth. Universal Love: Permanent Rainbow                              Notation: Music from a black hole. Chemical drip: Ocean coloured sky.                                          Revolving cascade: Compassion. Realisation: Spiritual awakening.

Life; Truth; Soul, Peace; Hope; Love:

Nirvana: Eternal Full moon.
