Banging doors, raised voices
Shouting wildly, echoing through corridors,
“It’s time! It’s time!”
Racing hearts, running footsteps,
Dancing to a chorus singing,
“It’s time! It’s time!”
Pounding heads, blood-filled ears,
Listening to the desperate cries,
“It’s time! It’s time!”
Burning flames, rushing water
Bursting through a dam,
“It’s time! It’s time!”
Fires blazing, floods rising
As disaster is impending,
“It’s time! It’s time!”
Gales howling, thunder rolling
Lightning etches into the sky,
“It’s time! It’s time!”
Hurricanes whirling, earthquakes shuddering
Reaching fever pitch in answer to the exclamations
“It’s time! It’s time!”
A quiet breeze, a deathly voice
Passes over the carnage and casualties whispering,
“It was time. It was time.”
