Did you hear?

Did you
hear
the whisper
of the night clouds
as a star
broke
into tiny splinters
and miniscule particles
lit up the path
across the universe?
Did you see
a shadow
fall over the sun
as he noted
the fallen star
in his little
flaming diary?
Did you hear
a zillion
silent screams
contained
in a fraction
of a second
as the earth
disappeared
into a deep dark
tunnel..
A black hole
One catastrophic second
as the world
gave way
under the
mounting pressures
of sin..
