*When* 10/17/2015
When the power goes out
And everyone's left looking
I will already have seen and left
When your everything's gone in a blink
Mines just beginning
Eyes opening while yours are closing
Life fertilized on your losing
Get up because you're laying down
Soon
Arranging necessities not for forever
But for soon
You can't continue in this vein eternally
Dalliance with the inevitable
Cringe or applaud upcoming boom
Simplified beyond the just simple
So centered lightning flash doesn't surprise me
Tragedy just the next step along your way
Down with all the failed evolutions
Treading lightly over your misconstrued conclusions
Invalid misconceptions
You're winning while I'm losing
At least it seems so
In your eyes
The eyes of surprise
Deer in the headlights of the last light
Your dying light
Warming the hands of those left
Your replacements
Betterments
Wearing your leavings like stains of grass
Building the future because your past is past
