Imagine
Imagine
the world
swept clean
of life
sent back in time
when it was silent
and empty
Imagine
not being alive
not existing
at all
Because your parents
were never born
and your grandparents were
never born and
on and on and on
Imagine
how blank
everything
would be
how different
the world would be
if nobody ever
inhabited it
The air would be clean
but nobody would be there
to enjoy it
There would be no pollution or noise
because nobody would be there
to cause it
The world would just
continue meandering
about the sun
while we were
in the land of the nonexistent
Just imagine...
