The waters obnubilate
The obsolescent vessel
Floating in the Obsidian Eve
for all to contemplate
it is too little and too small,
too allusive to save them all.
Nor room for uncivilized reality
consumed by obnoxious obloquy,
predators of the ignorant weak.
They invite the rolling water
upon our obtuse existance,
claiming they're here to assist us
as the atmosphere gets hotter.
Obsessively obtrusive,
The Obsidian Eve deceives.
We steady our lifeboat of obstinance,
prayerful of a second chance.
