A day after never more happened, fear of a catastrophe remains
As thunder and lightning announce a final fall of the black rain
The sky has cracked, at last a doorway to the heavens, opening
Souls forsaken and dreams destroyed, there is no homecoming
End of chapter and words, end of the story, the fatal reckoning
Heavens are calling, fate gathering shadows, each beckoning
The choice made, the future with the eternal or nothing at all
An end has come, no more vacillation, the King gave his call
Streams of souls passing, enter forever, or never more
“And starward drifts the stricken world,
Lone in unalterable gloom
Dead, with a universe for tomb,
Dark, and to vaster darkness whirled.”
George Sterling
