What If God Blinked
The sky turned into vast dark emptiness
The smell of nature replaced with odourless aridness
The winds got sucked into the ground
Quiescence was the loudest sound
Rivers so still without ripples
A tide and flow trapped in its own course
Sea waves and sand in a truce
Time stopped, mystery was let loose
Carnivores lost their bloodthirstiness
The birds became flightless
The flyers wondered nervously in the crawlers’ habitats
The food chain missed its end and lost its start
Shadows left the surfaces
And merged with their objects
There was no sound of nature’s forces
As the earth became oblivious of itself
A spell of timelessness was imminent
In the middle of nothingness, we are barely existent
Nature almost extinct
All because God Blinked
