The Natural Order

Armageddon.

Everything already destroyed, 

Relive death,

The point before the end,

Collapsing after that,

Knowing the end is near,

Loving while living,

Enjoying the full blooms of the gardens,

Procreating, marrying, falling in love,

That childhood fantasizing and day dreaming,

The warm bosom of the mother,

The umbilical cord,

Genesis.

From rockets and the internet

To swords and trebuchets,

Crusades and proselytization,

Africa,

Jesus.

The mighty Romans.

The Mahabharata and the Ramayana. 

Wheel and fire.

Primates.

To devolution and degeneration

And dinosaurs ruling the earth. 

And millions of years beyond.

Till it all ends with a Big Bang.

The chimerical void after that.

- Vinaykrishnan.
