Descent




On Monday, he noticed a rip

in the sky,

growing larger the more he thought;

and wondered if

this was a sign.



On Tuesday, laughter

came and went.

He ignored it.



On Wednesday, nothing happened

and he was afraid.



On Thursday, he knew



that left three days

to remake the world.



On Friday, he realised

time was old.



Saturday, the earth

grew quiet.



On the seventh day, he wept,

knowing that nothing mattered now,



not even the authorship

of these words.
