Perdition

The sun rose again,

another evening fell

Clouds couldn't mask the sun--he was blinded

Rose petals curled in baked masses, then fell

and refused to bloom again

Everything was dying.

The moon drifted away,

Night called for makeup

Beach shore, by the sea shore

He drowned

Everything was dying.

A single water droplet, hung

suspended,

splashed!

The pocket watch clicked counterclockwise

A silvery pearl

returning to the faucet

Everything was dying.
