I'm taking a semi-break from my daily poetry posts. Kurt Vonnegut died today.. and I'm a bit unreasonably upset.

From Requiem
Kurt Vonnegut

When the last living thing
has died on account of us,
how poetical it would be
if Earth could say,
in a voice floating up
perhaps
from the floor
of the Grand Canyon,
“It is done.”
People did not like it here.

So it goes.
