I am the last one,
The one who ends it all,
And sends the world spinning down a drain,
Into the pipework’s of the universe;

Let it be known,
That I am the last one,
To know everything that you don’t,
And to walk these lands once and for all,
Before I can truly forget it completely;

Please forgive us,
We didn’t mean to cause this,
But it is too late to turn this fate around;

It is now truly and woefully ended,
And all of my work has been accomplished,
So for now I have to say goodbye.

© Joseph S., San Anselmo, CA
