"Oh my beloved, it's all for nothing..."

Scorched Earth.

A photo collage made for my design class. The theme was "dystopia and utopia", so I was inspired by the massive wildfires we now experience yearly due to climate change. I can't think of anything more dystopian than rendering the Earth uninhabitable out of our own selfishness.

This Night is a Turning Knife

Eventually, the end.

It went through us

The edge

Of a finely sharpened

blade as it cuts

Separating.

When I came in the room

I thought you had left

Your frame

so small

You were nearly gone already.

I sat at the foot

of the bed

you would know last

watching the

slow

breaths

leave you.

As we all leave

Home

Eventually setting out for lands

Beyond.

This world could no longer hold you.

You left us

Through the front door.

No waves

Hugs

Goodbyes

Of any sort.

Your departure

Heralded

By twinkling lights

Of red

and green

cold outside

and a chill

inside, though the heat is on.

It used to be my favorite day

Now, I sit alone

And wish it to be over with

Quickly

Mercifully.

Please,

end it soon.

Hand of God,

Drop the blade.

Let her go.

You are greeted

By visions

Of those from your past

Those who left

Before you.

Was it a comfort?

They waited for you

They knew where to look.

You speak

As though they are right

Here

Familiar hands

Leading you onward.

Now we are

Apart.

I am forgetting you, I realize.

At first

it happened

Slowly

Then it went all at once.

You are blurred

As if through a lens

That will not focus.

I narrow my eyes

Hoping to sharpen the image

But

I can’t see you.

The blade has slashed through

Cutting you

away from

me.

At Once Mortal / At Once Divine

We stare, unblinking, at the expanse of space above at midnight, looking to zenith and seeing only posthumous messages from long-dead stars in the form of light waves. Cries that beg for just a moment more of existence within the vacuum. Yet, for as long as there has been life on this rock, before it even possessed eyes with which to gaze upon the heavens, it has been bathed in these mournful pleas. How long have we as a species looked to the skies, pondered the loneliness of the lights above, the loneliness of ourselves within them? At whatever point it may have been, we found it unbearable, and soon set out to populate it time and time again with visions of ourselves made divine. The hubris, the unbelievable humanism of it, to paint the heavens with our own visages.

I wonder, do they look back and also see themselves? Or is it just us, staring wide-eyed and ever hopeful at a truly uncaring void?

Veils

Soft static of dusk

lay hands upon me

and admit for once

that although we both

survive sun-down to sun-up

to sun-up to sun-down

a day will come

when I will not

meet you here nor

see your shadows settle

giving way to night

and yet another promise

of a peaceful slumber

will I be denied.

"In Your Nature"

Shaking, he glances pensively in the rearview mirror at the flames of the farmhouse where his victims had so recently lied slumbering. That inner voice that he can't quite identify as either his father or the devil answers his unspoken question:

"It's in your nature, boy."

This story is a series of vignettes I've been writing based off of some song title prompts. Stay tuned for further additions!
