The End, Part 6

Maybe the universe is revolting against us,

As if to purge us all from this reality;

Perhaps like a phoenix rising up

From the ashes of a ruined world,

From ashes that formed of bones

And human minds and hearts

To create something new and better

That I will never live to see.

I should feel sad, but I don't;

I feel resigned to fate, so watch--

I'll join you soon.
