from the surface of the earth,
an airplane is visible as it struggles to stay a flight.

a flash of seemingly divine light...

residents run towards the horizon,
hoping to escape it’s godly wrath.

all technological monoliths go up in flames.

earthlings awake
to another earth just past the ether,
nobody seems to mind.

i tell them we are going to die.

i entrap my pale flesh between my fingers,
in hopes of awakening.

there is a library and i am in the centre,
beneath the skylight.
letting in all of those otherworldly fragments.

the earth comes back for a moment,
then it fades away...

as i follow my subconscious,
into a new world of stardust collisions.  

a world within the universe of my brain.
