The transience of Man
By benafim
The Transience of Man In early morning, after rain,the slope- that had protectedthe village from the cold northerly wind- began moving.In vain I tried to rescue my computer but it melted dripped websites and unsent emails As the massive slope pressed up against the house, which screamed in agony, I jumped out of the window. When earth stopped sliding, I looked back at a peaceful, flat landscape and it didn’t seem like anyone had ever lived here. From moist soil human fingers, like fat worms, stuck up and birds began pecking. At the spot,where my cottage was buried an oak stood. If I didn’t knew better I would have thought it had been there for a hundred year. Written November 26th, 2001 © on Nov 26 2001 08:15 AM PST 0 • 13
