Fossil Dance

Final days
of our existence

History will record
that we did not survive

Forever and ever
has finally arrived

The doors are closing
on our long running show

Everyone is to blame
because
when we became
do or die


we collectively
suffered
a loss of
a will

Worn down 
by the responsibility
of acting responsibly

We succumbed finally
to the force
of extinction

that eventually
snuffs all species
