Great Beast  by John Grey
Great Beast
 by John Grey
The great beast
smacks evolution
against the ropes
with talons of steel,
demolishes the landscape,
rapes mountain and underground,
crushes civilization
then marches on its broken bones,
mashes forests, fields,
cities, lakes, oceans,
into the bleak abyss
of its insatiable maw,
then, rampaging
from east to west,
north to south,
stamps down on the remnants,
with massive feet,
giant indifference,
until it’s the last
living thing on Earth,
the last thing
to set in motion
its own starvation.
