Loss

The world is spinning
Crashing and colliding
Falling in upon itself
The centre has gone missing
Or been destroyed
Stars fall and galaxies spin
Out of control
And out of knowledge
And God is on high
Like the director of an orchestra
And I am the one who watches
From the centre of a ring of fire
And ice
And I fall with the world
As it spins
