[The Prophet]

The damndest thing,
I awoke from my late night slumber,
in a lawn chair by the railroad tracks,
and felt the earth shake.
Earthquake? No, not this time.
This time I (we) wern't that lucky.
It wasnt until later when i tried following
my trusty compass that i realized
the polarization of the Earth had shifted.

This changes everything...

The iron core
just toying with my emotions.
You can't take something so perminant
and completely reverse things overnight.
It just isnt polite
(but mother earth never got that memo.)


In our age of computers and nuclear weapons,
this planet has done us all in.
Back to the stone age.
Back to square one.
Maybe now i'll get some work done,
Maybe now i'll learn to live again.

It happens every 2million years, i suppose we were due
(although i feel like this has happened more recently than that)
The phenomenon is caused by variations in the molten iron of earths core,
and its a wonder my psyche is still able to adapt so steadily
every time i see a train crash.
