Things That Have Been Done

Fire falling from the sky.
Hitting earth.
Burning earth.
Blackening earth.

In a way purifying earth.
Purifying the wrongs.
Purifying the sins.
Purifying the hate.

Forgiving all that has occurred in the past.
All the senseless deaths.
All the useless violence.
All the things that have been done.
