This poem was inspired by several encounters and conversations I've had recently with people (both religious and secular) who expressed an intense and fervent desire for apocalypse. It's a perspective that i understand (I'm sure most of us have been in a position at some point where despair, anger and/or disappointment have brought us to the brink of entirely casting away concern), but not one that I endorse. This was an attempt to explore and express the position through poetry. Hope that you enjoy.
