Is This the End?
An acrostic poem
Everything stops
Curious animals look to the sky
Lunar position defies expectation
Innocence is lost in the dark
Power like that must come from a god
Sacrifice will be our salvation
End one life to save the rest

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
