[Critique Group 2] Joan for August

Julian's Prophecy
by Joan Myles

the angels were right he said

the world would be better off

without humans

his words echoed through the sanctuary

a mere youth we smiled

he will learn

and the years rolled by

and the forests burned

and the sky withheld its blessings

rain and snow and dew

the birds fell silent

and the air crackled with heat

the boy was right we wept

but there was only dust

 where our eyes should have been
