[Poetry] The Day Before Everything

Story by dark end on SoFurry

The poetry bug bit me again. Felt like uploading this one. Not strictly furry, although surprisingly anthropomorphic.

Did Entropy sit back

swirling a cup of tea with a spoon

And have no intention to drink it

until it had cooled enough not to burn her lips?

Did Gravity toss a ball

of nothing to himself

And whistle a tune unwritten

basking in the rays of stars yet to be born?

Did Eternity tuck her children in

with a loving kiss goodnight

And wish them sweet dreams

of the universe yet to come?

Is there a weekend between crunch and bang

for the rules of reality

To idle and relax

before there are things to rule?
