Impending Doom...

The impending doom seals our fate
All our work is to culminate
For force majeure is at hand
To swiftly bring what is planned
In the penultimate hour, the chance has gone
The wonders lost are never known
Lonesome moments of contrite
Wondering if we were right
Judgement day shall come for all
Were we misled, always destined to take that fall
Or did we know, the sacrifice
Made for the betterment of mankind
Are we the martyrs of our time
Expecting grace for our crime
Has our knowing, nulled the just
Or were our actions just enough
Moral fortitude tipping the scale
Releasing us from the sale
These are but the humble thoughts of one
Knowing not what I am to become
- Tim Miller, "Impending Doom"

  1. Pretty sad when the Klan's in the "right" and the State stands down so that the Left can sucker punch a few Nazi's.

  2. _ The World Weary Waltz _

    They’ve rioted in Baltimore
    TRA la la la la LA la!
    They’re writhing in pain.
    There’s a hurricane in Florida
    Blowing in too much rain.
    TRA la la la la LA!

    The whole world is festering with unhappy souls
    Race wars are fomenting from
    the North to the South Poles
    The Muslims hate the Christians
    With atheists we've lost touch
    Now most people hate each other very much!

    But we may unite yet in alliance proud
    Jong Un now possesses a Mushroom-Shaped Cloud
    So we can be certain on some lovely day
    That jerk will go berserk
    And we will all be blown away!

    Now an earthquake’s just hit Mexico
    TRA la la la la LA la!
    Disease stalks the land
    What Nature doesn’t do to us
    Will be done by the Human Hand!
