JUDGEMENT DAY

.

Stars are clashing
Comets are crashing
The Moon is on fire
The Sky is collapsing
Grinding the ground
Suffocating fumes
Furrows over tombs
Fractured roofs and dreams
Temples and bridges
Slaughtered eagles
Poisons trickling
Roots and weeds torn into parts
The ground is swallowing cities and ramparts

Blackout
The deafening hum
of the wreck and ruin
The landslide is blistering

This is the last of all hours
The fires of thunder are rumbling
Scorching the pastures and the flocks
Crumbling the hills into rocks
Molten steel is spilling
Again, like it did before
The sun will rise no more.

This hour of darkness
Will erase all rhymes and verses,
Fairytales, fables, and poems.
Time is up.
Both the streets of cobblestone and the
shadows,
Swallowed by the cavernous infernos

Yet high upon the summit,
On the Star of Salvation,
From down below, like a boomerang
We can hear an echo
Of the Big Bang!

At the threshold of the end
At the dawn of infinity
Through the rim of Heavenly Gates
Something is flickering tenderly
