All Deviations




Runaway
Breaking down
All alarms sounded
Cooling system down
Containment system cracked
Backup systems offline
A voice comes on the speaker
Calm and cool and soothing
"Fifeteen minutes...
to reach safe minimum distance..."

Runaway
Voices searching for control
Its unstable
The system's lost
We're just melting down
Reactors can't run like this
But still it tears on
Who took away control rods?
Can't run fast enough
to escape myself

I wrote the first half of this in class and the 2nd half not in class. I think the mood switched too much in it. Its also not working out like I wanted it too. The concept I'm in love with... just... I can't put it to words. Curse these mortal minds!

I really like this one. There's loads of imagery and you have to read it all the way through to get what it's about. It's really effective that it isn't too long. Love this poem. Going to :+fav: it. =)

Thanks! I really didn't think it was going to be worthy of such a thing! But it seems today I am wrong! I was afraid its meaning would be lost in it.

I'm sure glad I wasn't an abortion. How about you?

Didn't lose any meaning. It's very visual.
