Apocalypse now

Amidst the rumors of impending doom
Amidst ever pervading gloom
Waiting for Death to take its final bow,
I wonder, is it really apocalypse now?

Where greed has grown, and avarice abounds,
Where duplicity and fraudulence breeds new grounds,
Seeing the manipulators, and the seeds of chaos they sow,
I wonder, is it really apocalypse now?

Where speech is stifled by strangulating strands
Where a pair of lips is silenced, by many heavy hands
Truth’s spirit wallowing in an all time low,
I wonder, is it really apocalypse now?

Not by earth-shattering quakes, nor by charring fires
Apocalypse is nothing but unrestrained desires.
The day temptation doesn’t make the conscience waver,
It will not be apocalypse now, but apocalypse never.

-Shivam
