This poem came from an image that I saw. That image inspired this poem, in short. I twisted the poem up with some chilling messages and my typical darkness in poetry. In that, I created this poem. Comments are open.
Industrious Fascist
The skies
Have fallen.
Considering
That they
Took
Everything
Over.
A wasteland
Is all
That this is
Now.
Of rotting corpses
The dead
Are rising.
A nightmarish hell
A hellish nightmare.
But this
Is all
A reality
A new reality.
To speak the truth
Is to die
And to die
Is by
Speaking
The truth.
The sky
Has fallen
And no one
Can stop it.
The smoke stacks
Can be seen
For miles
And miles.
For this
Is the land
Of the corporations.
In brownish skies
From all
Of the smoke.
The sun
Creates
A mere haze.
The grass
Is now nothing
But dead weeds.
And the land
Has been
Dried up
From all
Of the hydroelectric dams.
And the echoes
From the factories
Can be heard.
As the employees
Aren’t necessarily
Hired.
Maybe
It isn’t
The skies
That have fallen.
Maybe
It is only
The carbon monoxide
That the factories
Produce.
To think
This was
The land of the free
The home of the brave.
The stale wind
Blows slowly
Across the wasteland
With the factories
In the distance.
