Pompeii

    mosaics covered in ash
              in the silent
                                      (too silent)
         streets of pompeii
did they know what was happening?
most likely thought
           the whole world was

no one wants to die alone
let's all go together
so we can comfort each other
in our cold moldy deaths
that strangely seems warmer
than the world our bodies
just left
