I waited for something
that was bound to arrive.
the train would speed
through the tunnel
and bring the light
with it. I was sure of it.
I pressed my face
to the glass. My lips
left a cherry-shaped
print behind.
The newspaper slapped
the front door. I ran
to reach it.
Headline: Museum Dinosaurs Collapse!
Clouds of Bones Near our Feet!
I folded myself
in half. I knew it
must be the end.
