lush growing trees
Bright blue water flushing down the rivers
dainty flowers dancing
cheetah racing
birds spreading their wings as far as they can spread
blink
Dead pelicans covered in brown chunky liquid
two headed lions biting each others heads off
monkeys barely surviving in the deserts
the smell of burning fur, scales, epidermis

the cause: **** saphians the ancestors of
what now only remains
the skeletons and decaying atoms
the creators and the destroyers
in the blink of an eye what was
once a glimpse of eternal sunshine
is now a gray worthless cloud

better luck next time
when the radioactivity shuts down
maybe on another planet
called "trying"
