Like Dried Ash For a New World

I know they can live without me They think they can't but they can There are too many items in my life They will come to be angry with me for them I am so out of date Passed my best used by date targeted by this virus I suppose our time has come The universe has found a way to get rid of us quickly It's going to be beautiful here without us In thier new world totally different from ours The things we loved will mean nothing to them Things we hated we fought against will be the combination of cultures the merging of people who are different we so stalwartly so ridiculously Fought merging They will celebrate the universal Earth They will celebrate the universal people They will not celebrate us We will be something to apologize for we will be something that they are sad to remember Perhaps we will be as horrible as slavery We love staying to ourselves keeping with our cultures they will celebrate everyone We are over and this virus may help them make that happen I would be sad except I am excited for them I am excited for a new world A new order these beautiful pure accepting loving people I am so ready for them to take over this world Yes they can be lazy because they're smarter than we are but some of them are incredibly hard-working My children are God bless the new nation and if the sacrifice of my life is what it takes for them to be born anew If they get to create a brand new world I accept my fate They are better than we are God bless them
