This is the End - A Poem

Twinkle twinkle; in the sky I see a ripple
Space tearing time in half
To my eyes it seemed quite simple
In the nature of existence to look up not forward
Toward more than four score and seven more years
Sincerely, lore that fills us with tears
Distancing cadences pounding in the stars
A credence though lack of faith
Unassumingly contingent on gods we are
Living in truth, they are tapering off experience
Insisting the end of our synthetics
A mock but omnipotent dissonance
While I marinate in maternal monologue
A cauldron of culmination
Naturally capped and caught on nostalgia
While encapsulating denial and desperation
Splints carry appendages that drop from the living
Driven towards desire but adrift in believing
A deity or dispatch of angels
But actually a mute modification
A distraction at most a roast of humanity
Mutation is imminent and it seems a calamity
Colliding with perseverance in adherence to
This;
I guess this is it.
