After the Eclipse

Earth-bound explosions erupt
A sun-shade shadows our system
Scattering suffocating soil
Slowly silence settles
Surface species sadly sleep
Decades of disease and death
Inner-Earthlinks inhabit the interior
Starving survivors share supplies
Squinting for sight still can't see
Towns of twisting tomb tunnels
Nervously networked necropolis
Equivocal emergence

Aganous Wait
Unknown Fate
A race we try to save
By digging our own grave
