The Butterfly Effect Set …
A butterfly flutters its wings, a soft change in the wind
Time stops not for me, or for any who contend
The ripple touches a tree, but to what is its end
Antagonist unknown as the plot to whom listens
A leaf falls, yet green as the life it enthralls
Lightning soon follows, to the tree, earth calls
Harbored within rotten, shade of discourse
It soon decomposes, the breeze moved on.
The birth of a forgotten child, female, tossed to the world
Her first breath absorbed, taints her soul
Soon incubates inside, for jade fathoms the girl
Her last retort of deceptive talk, residual.
The deep breath received, the now quaint young man
Exhaled, all is left is his reluctant stand
Loads up the double barrel, signs off his letter and
A loud boom, then smoke exits the window, struck again.
The ripple searches, stronger in tune the plot thickens
Across the oceans, in varied angles it quickens
Upon its quake, people breathing in the famine
Many fall breathless; can you see what’s happening?
For the dark shroud follows this wanton air
Started from beauty then birth of despair
Such war remains, the sick and dead don’t care
The red, black, and pale horse, lie in this Zephyr.
Then a fist, stunned frozen the mist in manifest
The tryst of three horses resists this conquest
As the white cloud, releases its bow, sent pierced
Strikes down the wanton air, now diminished.
Apocalypse now, apocalypse now finished
Consumed by War, Famine and Death..Victory ends this.
