When the Sun No Longer Forgives
Poetic Ragnarok
By Henrik HagelandPublished about a year ago • 1 min read

AI created picture with the poem as prompt June 2025.
Sun-locked rays,
clinging to driftwood—
the earth’s melting surface
boils with dying force.
.
Shadows fall short.
No longer does relief
exist
in our rotations.
.
Greed of Man,
Selfish Stupidity,
Monetary Arrogance,
Global Indifference.
.
Soon, far too late—
the waters rise,
menacing clouds hunt
the comfort
of civilization.
.
Winds rage,
thrash the sea,
pierce rooftops
like the thinnest
cookies!
