lava on streets flows in serpentine feet
history unpacked from volcanoes; unread
shots fired in the air, tear hearts of stars
wake up slumbering gods in cosy beds
distribution of power, splayed by bullet shower
metal runs the world; dense forests fall dead
the rage of souls ignited by towering holes
flows incessantly; knows not where it is led
heat pushes away clouds; they thunder loud
weighed down by angst; boiling tears held
limited vision writes stories to be shunned
drives angry crowds on roads teargassed
weapons sly, unsuspecting targets so dry
skeletons of the sane; spirit sucked and bled
Creative Experiments and More 
Powerful words of a dystopia to come. Loved it, Reena!

Reminds me of Pompeii… Been there too. Awful natural disaster.
Unnatural disasters… are just as bad.

The toxicity is spreading to smaller towns too. People have less to do and get carried away by political propaganda.
