The World Ravager

At last in view my newest prey, my belly's delight, my heart's content

For eons starve, for eons crave to reach at last the meal is served

Planets and stars are one of the same, universe collapse when I end my prey

Unfathomable distances and events I have witnessed, withstood and prevailed to be finally fed.

Wingspan of gods, visage of rend, claws of colossus and maw with no end

I see from afar my prey is inhabited with little parasites I will soon take a bite of

From far is my sight and unmistakable my judgement

I have come to a prey with no means of defense.

They shoot their meager weapons in sight of terror and destruction

They are so in fright they've forgotten their corruption

They stand as one for the survival of all the creation

None can and none will stop the inevitable annihilation.

I open my jaws to at last feast anew, the sight of the ending that no one knew

They scream in sheer terror loud as a thunder,

for they have never known of the dreaded all hunger

Their hope completely lost, their tears run through old and new.

I proceed to widen, the vastness of my great teeth

Their screams are delight, their world trembles at my feet

I reach the halfway in a long distance swallow

I see in one city, one man hollow, while others are sheep.

I stop in my wake to catch with my eye, has this man gone insane or has he no sight?

Has he no ears with which to hear, what sweet melodies are evoked out of fear?

Has he no skin with which to sense, the tremor escalating, no hope, no defense?

Has he no soul with which to despair, surely he must be lost in a quake with no air?

Is it a sword that see? Foolishness and madness!! THERE IS NO ESCAPE FROM THIS SADNESS!

Is that an armor I witness? He has totally gone crazy!! NO ONE WILL EVER STOP MY HUNGER FRENZY!

Is that a glare upon my eyes? What desperate veneer!! I AM THE WORLD RAVAGER, THE ONE ALL SHALL FEAR!

From down on the ground, this one man stands, and before he dies, he thinks with a glance...
