found the world was in my mind.

Watched the other day as the world crumbled The buildings fell away The trees were torn limb from limb The clouds didn’t float past And all of the colors faded away. An ocean of blackness Overtook the land Closing in a beam of light upon the hill I stood. Gradually the hand of god, Thought shining upon me, Closed on the last blade of grey grass. The sound was sucked out of the blackness I felt forgotten and lost. At once I stood in space That once occupied the earth. The expansiveness of the stars surrounded me. I felt like one single cell And thought like time Realizing this was my existence. I am nevertheless time, past, present, and future.
