The trees are crying,

Water runs red with blood.

 The ground shudders with sobs,

As a silver rain fills the air.

 

A droplet hits a bird mid flight,

And it falls to its grave below.

Another silver light strikes a young doe,

She collapses, her skull crushed.

 

A light mist shrouds the scene,

Once alive and green.

Everything the haze touches,

Shrivels and decays.

 

A plague without a cure,

Consumes the world.

Sometimes coalescing to create a tangible form,

We call him... man.
