    Ten Thousand Blue Skies

    By Wolf Larsen


    Air raid sirens are symphonies of hate and greed, they are the screeching of humanity on the edge of extinction
    Every poem, every concerto, every painting and sculpture will all be flames
    When the nuclear bombs are on the way grab the sky and turn it upside down
    Kill your own children
    Watch as your mother rips out her body organs one by one and places them into your own hands
    Eat the furniture in your room
    Swallow cyanide with your loved one
    Begin masturbating
    Swallow your own body
    Swallow your family
    Think of the human race drowning and there are no lifeboats
    Explain to your children what nuclear war means, tell them they have ten minutes to live
    Try to write a poem that no one will ever read in the remaining nine minutes
    Pray to a god that can not exist
    Pray for mercy that will not come

    "Air raid sirens are symphonies of hate and greed"

    That's a great line.

    Personally, I pray for 3 Days of Darkness. It's only three days. :)
