Weather changeDrastic,Think Permian-Triassic–Jurassic,21st century global shutdown:Mother of all mass extinctions.
It could beMeteor strike,Fireball of lightA super bolide,End of life:Death viableThrough extraterrestrial means.
But theseCelestial bodiesTerrestrial bodiesMillions of bodiesLayering the earth,Are cycles in a sphere:Bones, Peat,Graphite, Coal,Diamonds,Flesh, blood,Bones.

National Security DefenderAgainst Aggressor, Transgressor,Ignore the professor
Pass the bill, bring this idea to life
Through forceful will,A horrifically real productionOf an Armageddon film:Nuclear firestormNuclear darknessNuclear winterNuclear springStinging heatBurning coldIn the northern winds-Never mind that:Did you win?
Local pandemic spreading:Global warmingGlobal floodingGlobal coolingAnd green-less glaciersDarkest planet in the system,Smoky skiesAnd eerie silence
How many Titanics carrying souls must sink before their eyesBefore they decide the icebergIs bigger than they think?
I wouldn’t want to be a survivorAfter they toss around whimsLike little hand grenadesThat could wipe out geographies and histories
Between the existence of terrestrial machinesVersus the remote possibility of extraterrestrial means
I wouldn't want to bet onHow it all ends.
