Green Lantern of Steel

⚔️⚔️🔩⚔️⚔️

Modern day Warriors in an Apocalyptic war, Light your Lanterns Wanderer

The Night is a blade while the Stars are its Whetstone.

Where men have Marched where the pavement cracks into fangs

Where the last camp fires gutter in oil drum hearts

Modern Armor is hammered from stop signs & scrap metal prayer

Our banner from old historical maps of cities that were swallowed

Yet, the Sword still Sparks the Oblivion

Holed up in the clench of the Azovstal stronghold

The surviving battalion went in as one person, Came out a brigade of another

Near the city of Mariupol of a network of tunnels

Winding through subways safe from the above weaponry where

Green Steel is the hope for recovery, a turbocharged blueprint of what’s to

Be molded in the smelters of a crude crucible of misshaped Chios.

I write in a surrealistic style learning new realities as i researched Quantum physics in Quantum Dreaming where the man had a Quantum computer in his home that could see into the future.
