Armageddon

N.B. This is the original version.

Volcanoes rise to tormented skies!
Earthquakes crack and seastorms wrack!
Hurricanes whirl and tsunamis curl!
Armageddon's birth! The bane of the Earth!

The animals leave, by two, by two
The Reaper reaves, by two, by two
Armageddon breathes... by two... by two...

As morning breaks over ravaged lands
It's crushed 'neath Armageddon's hand
No cricket chirps on bloodstained sand
No bird is singing in the land.

The animals died, by two, by two
The Reaper's pride, by two, by two
Armageddon sighed... by two... by two....

Hubble is safe, lucky is Mir,
All that is left that us humans held dear.
No time for redemption we should have sought long ago
Our evil prevented Armageddon's overthrow.

I wroe that about 3 years ago.

Penned by my hand on the 9th of Phaestian, in the year 248 AF.
