In the long years to follow eternity,
There will be nothing beautiful in this world.
The trees will disappear,
The sky will be gray.
The earth will be a mere sphere
Of black and white.
The only color left,
Is bronze.
Coins are the only thing we have left.
Yet they are what has made this world
So
Colorless.

Avatar, a debate, an amazing painting by an aspiring artist, and my back yard inspired this one.
