It's Nothing



Waves of navy and aquamarine, crash against rocks once serene

A mountain forms at the edge of space, it grows and grows ... and grows ... and grows

The inhabitants of a sunny land, placated, with heads in sand

The sun is covered and darkness shows, eclipsed by the wave that grows ... and grows... and grows

The temperature cools ... The roar gets LOUDER Muffled cries... Sand in eyes... The tension of impending dues... the buried masses... unsuspecting fools
