Neo Purge

This is a new rendition of "And so the World Burns."
I call it Neo Purge, because it is a new rendition to a poem about Nuclear Holocaust... it seemed fitting, but hey who knows right xDD...

Anyway, I hope peoples appreciate the difference in the writing style and structure. ^^

Neo Purge

And so the world burns.
The children of men spolling over
a cup of tears too full of grief-
so slow to trickle into nothing.

Cruelest angels sang in discord,
a mockery to the prayers
of sullen faced religious men,
that dropped to their knees in reverence of calamity.

The sun set too early,
doomed to never rise again.
The break of day brought only fear
and the scathing light of erasure.

"The wrath of God."
They spoke in merciless despair.
He never answered their pleas.
Walking on water was merely a parlor trick,
in a land where there is no hope.

And so the world grew quiet
shrieks of children died out,
muffled in a mother's arms-
that smothered innocent smiles with regret.

A frenzied choir sang,
the envious song-
of a bitter sentiment
jealous of the dead.

The religious men resentfully cursed,
a deaf lord,
refusing to bow rebellious heads
in reverence of a forsaken lord.

And so the land is hushed-
a barren strip of desert lay,
no children left playing..
soot lay etched in horrifying silhouettes,
remnants from where the world burned
