what if a dawn of a doom of a dream bites this universe in two, peels forever out of his grave and sprinkles nowhere with me and you?

I won't apologize for my constant dooming though I concede it is relentless and accusatory at you and medicinal and poisonous to me, an essential component of my mithridatism; it is as necessary to me as it is a self-defeating lifesaving self-perpetuating motion loop. I would need to truly want it to stop before I could truly try to stop and I can't want it to stop when I think everything will ever and always get worse in the shitlordocene

Obligatory and over-used gag: when my daughter is my age it will be 2059 (the year of my centenary), the Earth will still be here (I won't), will the world? Doomy too if not doomier than me, she trys to not wallow in it like me, I envy her attempts, they are as genuine as mine wouldn't be. I do understand my wallowing is a choice that I tell myself is a moral imperative. Call it boomer guilt, call it parental concern, call it self-indulgent attention sluttery, call it getting old and foreseeing my physical future (some oldsters here may remember long ago when I regularaly likened my lifespan to America's timeline to Slothrop's missiles - still true). Forgive me, the doom will continue until it won't and it won't ever won't, we're still in doom, see inklings of doomier, have no idea how doomiest it's gonna get, only know that it will. Hear, this makes me happy though it doesn't give me hope

[what if a much of a which of a wind]

E.E. Cummings

what if a much of a which of a wind

gives truth to the summer's lie;

bloodies with dizzying leaves the sun

and yanks immortal stars awry?

Blow king to beggar and queen to seem

(blow friend to fiend:blow space to time)

—when skies are hanged and oceans drowned,

the single secret will still be man

what if a keen of a lean wind flays

screaming hills with sleet and snow:

strangles valleys by ropes of thing

and stifles forests in white ago?

Blow hope to terror;blow seeing to blind

(blow pity to envy and soul to mind)

—whose hearts are mountains, roots are trees,

it's they shall cry hello to the spring

what if a dawn of a doom of a dream

bites this universe in two, 

peels forever out of his grave

and sprinkles nowhere with me and you?

Blow soon to never and never to twice

(blow life to isn't: blow death to was)

—all nothing's only our hugest home;

the most who die,the more we live
