The Sky Is Falling! The Sky Is Falling!

The sky is falling! The sky is falling! Gently, over time, over My furnishings, like white plaster dust Falling gently over time. The sky is falling! The sky is falling! A catastrophe! A tragedy! Gently, over time, over A minute, an hour, a day, a week, Over months, years, decades, slowly, Slowly, over all my furnishings, Like white plaster dust falling Slowly, gently over time. The sky is falling! The sky is falling! Gently, over time, over All my furnishings, like white Plaster dust, slowly, slowly, Over my dead body, Slowly, gently, over time, Like white plaster dust the sky Is falling, is falling . . .
