Incase you didnt know, the four horsemen of the apocalypse are Famine, Pestilence, Destruction, and Death.

Salted rivers emerge, fed from cries, all unheard
Raisin'd bodies weep, bare breadbaskets, all ubsurd
Prayers to the messiah, ask for wine and samon
and rivers elevate, through tears released from famine


Abysmal hate reels, with encountered absurdity
Casted sullen clouds smother, disguising unity
Coinciding ideals, disease binded, reminisce hopeful contenance
Id driven illness, blooms relentless brutality, spreading pestilence

Vicious words erode, representing termites, mauling without rein
Innocent minds decay, rehearsing harrasments, inserted in the brain.
Suicide assailed thought, cohearsed down a plank, drowns in corruption
Afloat in loathe, and torpid will, bobs towards destruction.

Evaporating life, drained of emotion, not quite over, but getting steeper
As darkness approaches, hope turns grim, as one nears the Reaper
Time spiraled down, and the body turns colder, and in the last breath
Denial ceases, realizing the inevitable, as life fades to death
