A Little Apocalypse

A poem from 2019

There’s nobody here
There never is
Nature’s decay comes slowly
Man manufactured decay less so
But who is there to see it?


Do you think nature cares?
Does it need a spectator?
It has the sun
It seems to be enough
Ain’t nobody comes round here no mo’


Does the breeze still blow
When there are no rosy cheeks to feel it
Do the birds still sing
When mankind has departed?
Clap your hands, trees! It’s showtime!
