Blackout Poem of Doom

by Zoe

Crisis, identity, unity

Mortal terror, hopeful

Fled

End, burdens

Desperate, poor, unexpected

Last dim pools of hope drain away

Essential, trapped

Crisis

Pride, war

Tested, collapse, precarious

Limits, powerful, overwhelm

Rejected, labor, protest

Refuse, bodies, drowned

Wander

Poor, war, leave

Resist, dangerous

Imagine, peace

Fell

Not
