Toxic post-apocalypse wasteland
Nuclear blessings radiate outwards
Rusted tanks and skeletons littering the bleakness
Chlorine and mustard gas dispersed in the atmosphere
Sand and desert for miles
Charred and discolored terrain
Gaping wounds in the earth, twenty feet deep
Infertile soil contaminated with acid
from chemical munitions and rain
Smog sky and carbon dioxide
blocking the sun’s rays
Parts of destroyed mechs tinted green from centuries of exposure to the environment
Errant robots gliding through the expanse
Machines without masters, created for a forgotten purpose
(and wandering without destination)
just like the world.
