After the End/Quotes: Difference between revisions

{{quote|Four hundred centuries have passes since man stepped out into the cold depths of space. Forty thousand years. An age so long that that its history lies shrouded in legend. Who knows how Mankind came to be scattered across a million disparate worlds? Who remembers the wars that tore ancient Earth asunder and dragged man down to the level of brute beasts? Who could recognize the names of Earth's ancient ruins, of nations destroyed and peoples long since crumbled to dust? To these questions, there can be no answers. From these times there come only whispers of horror and death. |'''[[Warhammer 4000040,000]]'''}}

{{quote|Oh! We're so tired<br />

Watching the world expire<br />

Time that we retire<br />

{{quote|The once green earth<br />

Is scattered with horror and gray<br />

No winners, just losers<br />

{{quote|'''Cathy:''' Does the future ''always'' have to be post-apocalyptic?<br />

{{quote|Learn by heart this poem of mine<br />

so, dead, I still will share the time<br />

when you cannot endure a house<br />

deprived of water, light, or gas,<br />

and, stumbling out to find a cave,<br />

roots, berries, nuts to stay alive,<br />

get you a cudgel, find a well,<br />

a bit of land, and, if it's held,<br />

kill the owner, eat the corpse.<br />

I'll trudge beside your faltering steps<br />

between the ruins' broken stones,<br />

whispering "You are dead; you're done!<br />

Where would you go? That soul you own<br />

froze solid when you left your town."<br />

{{quote|The explosion that destroyed our city <br />

Razed our home, transformed our fields into wasteland <br />

Was nothing compare to what was now happening <br />

{{quote|Not one will know of the war, not one<br />

Will care at last when it is done.<br />

Not one would care, neither bird nor tree<br />

If mankind perished utterly.<br />

And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn,<br />

{{quote|Termination (termination)<br />

Expiration (expiration)<br />

Cancellation (cancellation): Human Race<br />

Expectation (expectation)<br />

Liberation (liberation)<br />

Population (population) laid to waste<br />

See our mother<br />

Put to death<br />

See our mother die<br />

[interlude]<br />

Smouldering decay<br />

Take her breath away<br />

Millions of our years<br />

In moments dissapear<br />

...<br />

Fire<br />

Is the outcome of hipocracy<br />

Darkest potency<br />

In the exit of humanity<br />

Coulor our world Blackened<br />
