Meet Your Master

They once all feared the ending;
The one thing they knew would come,
Something that would destroy Earth in one step,
Leaving nothing but a single crumb.

It would tear houses from their roots
And ocean waters would overflow.
The elderly won't end their life in grace
And the young won't get to grow.

But there was one thing that was unknown;
A twist in this apocalyptic tale.
This deadly cause that would end the world
Came in the form of a devious male.

Not a common man, no that is not what I mean;
As this male is strong, with unusual height.
He bares scars on his face, and sores on his arms
And goes nowhere without initiating a fight.

Nobody knows where he came from
And no one knows why he is here.
All that people have been informed of
Is that he is somebody they need to fear.

Now this day is upon them,
They have nowhere that they can run.
Some of them, eager to end the torture
Shoot themselves with a stone cold gun.

Each step he takes around them
Causes destruction in every direction.
He's like a harmful disease, never ceasing;
A fast paced killing infection.

He ends the world so calmly
While wrecking terror on every path,
And as people stare up aimlessly, he says
"Meet your master," and laughs.
