Update #1: This is the way the world ends

Posted on August 29, 2011

This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper.

Men are hollow, weak, pitiful. They think they can, but they cannot. They whisper meaningless things to each other, quietly, meaningless. The wind is dry and the glass is filled with rats and broken. We are without shape or form, without color.

The gesture is with force and the motion is paralyzed.


Those who have crossed, they remember our violent souls and they shudder. Their eyes do not dare meet ours, and they dream of a kingdom where we do not exist. Sunlight is a dim memory, the darkness sways and swings, and we are forgetting everything.

There is, and voices are. Radiant, more and more, distant, more and more. Don’t come any closer. Deliberately dream, and the fading landscape is as distant as death is now. We are disguised, crowskin, this is the way we are behaving now. Today, the final day.

Trembling, tenderness, prayers and broken stone.
There are no eyes here, no one here to see. We grope, we gather, we are timid and meek. Sightless.

The eyes are not here
There are no eyes here
In this valley of dying stars


Between the conception
And the creation
Between the emotion
And the response
Falls the Shadow

Life is very long
