Oh! Ancestural Drama
by Tony Whitaker
At last our fate has us together
friends so long on different paths
though we spoke in peaceful platitudes
we were deafened when our worlds approached
As the asteroid, smashes into earth,
creasing an "Oh!" into the earth,
this cosmic drama dashed all normalcy
prescribing our mutual destruction
Now with orbits closing in,
a collision of sapien celestial objects,
rushing in to fill the void,
flames of lust create barren fields
where once lived those
who once trusted.
