Fossil

The meteoric rise and fall
Pieces forced into the puzzle
We thrived peacefully
But it came to a violent end
Some feared it and ran
Others considered it a godsend
The skyline in flames
Premonition of the end of days
We, the dominant life forms
Now to be yesterday’s stale buffet
Scorched scales turn to soft tissue
As my retinas start to melt
The image last burnt in
All my friends are dead
The death of the planet
And we came along for the ride
