Great ball of fire, erupting like a centuries-dormant volcano

mercilessly ripping through the oblivious atmosphere

Unbeknownst, a blast that shook the world

 

Flashes of yellow turned scarlet 

turned violet, blue, and green 

 

Plumes of pillage, war means triumph

 

The creators rejoiced, but it promptly subsided 

for they created a monster, one of insurmountable strength

Destroyer of worlds 

 

ingesting all surrounding light 

glowing, lingering over the valley like a ghost 

Demarcation of a new reality 

 

A silent consciousness protrudes

Man has incited his own destruction
