We came as a strand of life from the source.
The estuary signalled creation, and finally; the residents spoke back.
There she was on the veranda; a Costa Rican sunset.
He sank pills with beer, and then he promptly disappeared.
And when they burned down the library, all humanity died.
The pixels flared upon the screen: now she is dead.
I surfed meteorites and time, just to see you again.
She planted the seed, then laid down in the soil.
She’s married now I think; I care not to check.
A woman took over God’s role: The results improved dramatically.
