Hegemony
Created by
"What next?" we asked.
When the borders of physics and law split at our touch.
When need and want sloughed away, save an endless greed for purpose.
When the heaven we built crumbled and our galaxy burned.
When our saviours watched on silently, nary a motion to betray them.
When the nascent god we birthed first blinked against the shimmering universe.
"What next?" we asked.
And the answer came as a single word.
