something died
or
something was born
after something died
or
something was born
from the something
that died
or
something has changed
and I feel like I’m newly
born and yet as if I have
died at the same time

something has changed
is all I know

something snapped
or
something broke
or
something burnt up
or
something exploded
and is still raining
down upon the land

something is different

something has changed

but the world has not changed,
there is a comfortable fear in
that
