A crippled empire, an explosive realm,
Which has seen the depths of madness and greed.
For what is done can't be undone.
Nigh is the chaos!
Suffering in secrecy are the sinners.
No longer are they mere trifles.
The expansion has begun.
The shrouding.
A single land mass. Separation.
The evolution humans:
Once a single species-now diversified ever conflicting tribes.
It wages on.The fading away of the morals. Disappearance.
To each his own.
The motto of the new "evolved" world.
Only leading to its own destruction.
The message has been foretold. The warning.
Voices unheard. Unheeded.
A straight passage from ear through ear. Dissolution.
Present pondering is fruitless.
The dawn of man will face dusk.
When will this occurrence show itself?
Only time will tell. The fate of not just mankind. Of earth.
Eradication of biodiversity as all know.
Bad parenting by Mother Nature?
A change in atmosphere?
A balance shift in the universe?
God's boredom?
Nay!
We were always our own Kryptonite...
