Apocalypse

And the apocalypse can be any kind. Examples:
Tornado
Zombie
Gummy bears
2012
Vampire
etc.

Be creative
The poem can be of any kind, any length, and any font.
Just try to keep it in English.
I can't wait to see your entries.
My inspiration for this competition is seeing old footage from joplin on the news again

Ok this is an example
And it doesn't count

I look out my door
see the world in dust
Ruins, fires, and death
Who can I trust
A gummy bear,
the size of an fridge,
chases a poor woman.
She meets her end
I grab my fork
And my hunting knife
Not sure whether to
run, eat, or fight
A gummy bear attacks me
I decapitate the thing
I then grab its head
And have a little treat

Haha. Hey read this I found it days ago when I was bored and needed a laugh or scare! lol. I didnt make this or own it.


They stumble run their rotten teeth
They are the terrors from beneath

Jagged claws, pale eyes
Ignore the Infected’s pleading cries

Finish them off is what to do
because later they will come after you

There is no hope they feel no pain
The shoot them now destroy their brain

When you become one, and it is when
you fall pray inside the lions den

Then do make sure,
Find the cure
A bullet to the head for sure

We are condemned to the same fate
to fall to the zombies ravenous hate

And through the infected’s hateful grin
They will tear you limb from limb

They delve like children in the cookie jar
Eating you alive like the free snack bar

You try to scream your muffle cries
as the infected hordes claw out your eyes

Eyes once a treasured gem
Now you have no use for them

Trapped inside our death cage
Like gladiators against the lions rage

Waiting for death to solemly claim
the soul it owns it has no name

The host is now the zombies prey
Do not feel grief or dismay

For you have not long, they will come
Your eyes white skin numb

The pain they bring you must endure
for this Zombie plague there is no cure

Your no longer a survivor, your one of the dead
You lust flesh, your out of your head

Your last sight will be death
Draining your soul your last breath

It’s smoky hand reaches inside
Departing out just like the tide

It takes your memories straight from your head
That marks the moment that you are dead

No time to dig a grave, no fear
Your zombie calling’s finally here

Now your a zombie you have no worth
Time to reak havoc on the survivors of earth

I'll make my own right now!

Okay heres mine!


We've turned away from the sun;
In the East, the Rocky Mountains loom,
their tallest painted purest white.
They say these, too, will shake apart
or crumble down to dust.

I leave, driving east,
hoping to slip between the mountains
before the lunar oracle proclaims their doom,
instructs their snowy crowns to haunt the valley.
And if I'm never seen again,
oh well,
I'll any some day break in their abyss,
so why not now?

how is that an apocalyse

dude, that was a prick-type thing to do, seeing as she is the only person (apart from myself) who responded to your post at all..

How isn't it?

Obviously part of the world has fallen to ruins and the narrator is in fear of what's left will soon fall too. It doesn't hint as to why yet. The next part does.

The lunar oracle roughly is the same as lunar shrine. Lunar means moon. So I gathered that perhaps the moon was ceasing.
I hope you don't need me to spell out how the moon ceasing would bring our world to end.
The end where she talks about breaking into the abyss is about basically soccumbing to death.

Atleast that's what I got. Obviously it is, in fact, apocalyptic.

You whisper of death
As if you know her name
Mother Virgo
Render flesh with royal claws
Shift the balance from the stars
Beam down solaris
Gleaming white heat
Raising past the temperature for melting human skin
The surface of the earth
In a lunar microwave
The final judgment
Experiment
Failed.

Oh ok, I didnt read it clearly the first time. And good job dragon year

This is more of a dream that i had and it dosent work as well with it but its something


The perfect day
All of your closest family and friends
Having the best of times for hours on end
And just when things couldn’t have gotten any better
They suddenly became the very worst
A single plane that flew overhead
Unleashed the horror Einstein had unlocked
All based on splitting a few atoms
As you watch the ominous mushroom cloud rise
Terror instills you and the heat is unbearable
The building before you begins to shatter
Pieces of it slicing through your flesh and bone
The radiation begins to set in
Combined with the heat of the blast
You watch as the ones you hold so close
Have their skin and flesh boil and burn away
The final shock-wave rushes towards you
As you laying staring at the carcass
Of the one you instinctively know
Is your lover the one love of your life
Laying there boiling and almost in pieces
But yet still alive staring back at you
Suffering the same agony you feel
When it finally reaches you your sight goes black
But not before you watch them shatter to dust
You feel your life slipping from you
Right before you wake up

It fits,bodom... to me it feels like world war 3

KRISTALLNACHT

Stormtroopers
curse break and steal
in tinkling murmurs as

crisp glass shivers, snaps
concusses
through the November night.
Lives disappear. Triumphant

vandals
ransack and burn the soul of God.

Demonic gingerbread
will bake in greedy
ovens.  

I told you its okay. lol. im perfectly fine.
