Understatement

a turn of phrase
intended to be a hint
evolved into a story

-the blackening Sun
misguides the world
-a pink unicorn
walks the night sky
-sculptors, writers
and painters
collaborate
to depict
a post-apocalyptic world

Baba Vanga confesses
-she understated
what she saw

  1. Your first stanza could stand alone but your entire poem is timely and resonates.

    ” sculptors, writers and painters collaborate
    to depict a post-apocalyptic world”

    How sad it is that sometimes we feel like the only ones to see it.
