Dire Consequences

The mountains of madness
are in flames,
the rivers of hell
overflow their banks,
the burning earth
trembles to its very core,
and all the monsters of the abyss
are washed ashore.
The wild winds howl
breeding ghostly forms,
the seven headed beast prowls
roaring like a raging storm
and the devil's rain falls
on the just and the unjust
and over the forgotten folks
creeping out of the murky past.
And it is too late to scream
too dark to see black
the eternal void is ready
to burst at its seams
'cause nothing will come back.
