Rest In Peace, Mr. Vonnegut.

When the last living thing
has died on account of us,
how poetical it would be
if Earth could say,
in a voice floating up
perhaps
from the floor
of the Grand Canyon,
“It is done.”
People did not like it here.

~ Kurt Vonnegut Jr. (1922 – 2007)

Thank you for the words, even if we don’t listen that well.
