Poetry

Predictions askew

the sun sighs out loud
earth scuds frightened in darkness
rumble in the skies
aliens' bid their farewell
omens a roll of the dice
crows caw whether it near or far

Reena’s Xploration Challenge #263

I have chosen words or situations for this week’s prompt from Baba Vanga’s predictions for 2023.

  • Devastating solar storm
  • Explosion in a nuclear plant
  • Human birth in laboratories
  • Alien attacks
  • Earth changing its orbit
  • Bioweapons

You need not use the words verbatim. You can use one or more of the situations as a stimulus for imagination, and base your piece on it.

You may also express general reflections on prophesies, your belief system or reasons to disbelieve predictions. Should we treat such predictions as a warning signal and prepare ahead, or just go ahead with our lives?

Do you think the inevitable will happen, and there is no point in worrying ourselves sick about it?

    1. Fabulous, and a perfect pairing with my poem. Sivert has a very distinctive voice and from my research, he is from Norway. Thank you, Ivor! 🌍💫

  11. I’ve been watching some ‘StarTalk’ programs with Neil deGrasse Tyson… Eventually there might not be humans as we know them. The sun will fry the earth… But for now how about we focus on the present and make things better for those here? It is nice to know that the ozone layer is actually repairing itself too.
