A pitched battle.
One side seeking
to destroy the other.
Neither see
the spiral
of their collateral effects.
The Earth destroyed,
lives lost,
but what’s more,
reality becomes frayed.
Tears in the veil,
never truly repaired.
Just rends and scars
in our cosmic memory.
Ego only sees itself.
Attacked,
it sees only enemies.
In its fervor
to destroy it challengers
it kills everything it loves.
