Tomorrow--
I keep saying I'll write more tomorrow.
I always push the time further back.
Turns out to be the same bullshit sorrow.
Maybe there is something minor that I lack.
I'm not quite sure what I continue to miss,
But everything will come clear in the end.
Maybe it will be as simple as this:
"You might not comprehend,
But soon enough time shall show
What will never blend.
So I command you to bestow
The knowledge we will never behold,
For it will shall not unfold."
Fool--
You there, my friend,
You are a pathetic little fool.
Do not try to pretend
As if it only exists during a yule.
Nothing will ever compare
So, good sir, I bid you well.
Oh fool, what a fool you are.
Dreaming to become a czar,
Wishing to play guitar.
You poor pathetic fool.
You.
Alpenglow--
I watched you stare out into the sun. As if you could not draw your eyes apart from the alpenglow of the reddish ring around the sun. Everything would freeze when you would look beyond the tree. Beyond the clouds. The Sun was there. Settling on the other side of the world. Disappearing from our hemisphere into the next. As if you wouldn't see it again. At that moment we didn't know. Everything was slowly stopping in it's place. Everything slowly slipping out of the rule of the universe. Every night. Something natural that has occurred for centuries would come to a halt. What were we to do?? We had not noticed early enough. It was as if it were a tumor swelling inside your brain. And then the clock struck eleven for the final time. The world had stopped spinning. The galaxy stopped sparkling. First eternal darkness as the sun was wiped out by the raging black hole. Next the other stars slowly disappeared. The moon had never looked so beautiful for those seven seconds it had in the spotlight being the only source of light for light years. In the seven seconds of beauty, you could see Mercury sucked into the supernova black hole. Next it was venus being slurped up like a noodle. Your moon. Your precious, beautiful moon that you never noticed until the seven seconds it lit the skies. Moments passed. Darkness raised. The sound was unbearable. It is all gone. One by one. Right after Earth followed Mars. Jupiter. Saturn. Uranus. Neptune. Pluto. The entire Milky Way. Obliterated.
Asphyxiation--
Abnormal breathing.
It won't stop.
You know you are going to die.
Why even try.?
You are overwhelmed with desire
Of life, you manage one last breathe.
Have you survived?
Is it the "white light"?
Or is it the light inside the hospital ceilings?
