Mythical Happy Ending Land

. the place before and after time does not recognize the in between

When it's time to meet and make a mess

Of all of our abstract happiness

The earth will sigh. . .

And great winds will consume the lands

As we abuse that carefully prepared happiness

            Exposed now

Away from of the void

The truth of sound sings loud

Where we live, love, eventually become jaded

            Before we die

And return to the void and to nothing

            In no time

Like it never happened

      (where nothing happens)

            Not even regrets

A good thought provoking piece-I do not know how to compute the prospect of oblivion- I have given it some mind of late- and in that full moon of thinking, it can terrify.
Nice work!

No one knows, but none the less oblivion remains inevitable for everyone eventually. The recent glut of superhero movies, I think, sub consciously panders to a deep fear of that. And incidentally creates unrealistic expectations for our impressionable youth that may will carry, for better or worse, with them into adulthood. I'd bet on it being for the worse myself... hubris (and diversification) is a word that will eventually be forgotten by the youth of western society I fear. Thanks for the kind words. A bunch of one note d*********s with unrealistic expectations for a living.
