Painting Apocalypse MAG
When the grass was still green,
 He told me he’d paint the moon
 With his black and blue oils
 No pastels in sight
 When the sky erupted fireflies
 He determined he’d paint it clear
 With some layered cobalt
 No crawlers on this canvas
 When the frame was covered with ash
 He promised he’d paint us together
 With a photo he kept in his coat
 No destruction in our picture
 But when the world turned inside out
 His paintings were left untouched
 With frayed edges and dried pigments
 No more morning, no night
