Never Existed
(inspired by ‘The Hunger Games’)
Flames
Ashes
So this is what it felt like
To have all you ever knew and loved turn into
Dust
Skulls
Everything in wreckage
Hard to imagine how it was before…
Silence
Dead silence
So silent I could almost hear the screams
All eight thousand of them
Children
Desperate mothers
Why would someone want to do such evil?
Especially to the people who are the most vulnerable…
Ashes
Flames
So this is what it felt like
To have all you ever knew and loved turn into
Something that looked like
It never
Existed
Little Deer
The little deer trots
Over the glistening stream
To the horizon
What if
Watermelons were blue
Herons liked bananas
Apples were square
Tornados were calm
Islands were connected
Fireworks were dark
What would the world be like?
