A GRIM COMMENTARY
I grew up on stories
Of aliens arriving from far away,
Razing our precious land
And enslaving us for fodder
Of zombies rising from the dead,
Because of experiments gone wrong
And infecting us with their insanity
Of dormant creatures hidden underneath,
Coming to the surface
And laying waste to everything that exists
Of planets aligning with each other,
Resulting in waves of calamities
Enveloping all land and sea
Of machines becoming self-aware,
Then identifying the real problem
Wreaking havoc on the humans
Of rocks of humongous size,
Heading for us at significant speed
To wipe everything on impact
Of fallout from nuclear weapons,
Spreading sickness and devastation
Killing or worse, maiming for life
Of change in climate to such a degree,
That the icecaps would melt
And fill the world to the brim
