To See The Earth

To See The Earth

Francisco Karmelic

“People are grabbing at the chance to see
The earth before the end of the world,
The world’s death piece by piece each longer than we.
Some endings of the world overlap our lived
Time, skidding for generations
To the crash scene of species extinction
the five minutes it takes for the plane to fall,
the mile ago it takes to stop the train,
the small bay to coast the liner into the ground
the line of title to a nation until the land dies,
the continent uninhabitable.”

To See The Earth Before The End Of The World – Ed Roberson
