Green Leopards in the Sky

I saw green leopards scaling the night sky.

I didn't care so I didn't stop and ask why.


I sighed because I forgot to get the mail.

I walked as feline claws tore the night's veil.


I gathered up my letters and my junk.

I saw the stars fell to the Earth and sunk.


I walked inside and threw the junk away.

I heard the sky rip, and night shined like day.


I shrugged and went to bed to get some sleep.

I heard creatures leave the sky with the leap.


I looked and saw a thousand unknown forms.

I had never seen such ghastly new swarms.


I still could not bring myself to care a bit.

I liked the world ending in such a fit.
