It all started with the weather

Grey clouding the canvases of the windows

Parallel lines along the sides of

the belly of a metal whale that

blew strange fumes and ate humans,

swallowing them whole, only to deposit

them at their designated destinations.

It turned to back pains,

phantom aches that doctors told off

Vanishing with a single pill

Mysterious lines of a long lost spell

When it finally turned to a

strange topic of the vast unknown

in a galaxy far, far away.
