The
foreshadow approaches,
When
the pugilist loses will to fight
When
the vampire thirsts for light,
The
foreshadow encroaches
The
premonition nears
When
the activist ignores cause
When
the seer can’t see so far
The
premonition appears
The
augur looms
When
the loyalist loses allegiance
When
the philosopher abandons reason
The
augur brews
The
dire prophecy closes in
When
the atheist begins to care
When
priests abandon prayer
The
dire prophecy begins
Yet
still, this doesn’t mean
Our
world has to end
