numbers over heads.
what do they mean?
they're counting down by the day,
i have no idea why.

someone reaches zero.

but,
i see it now,
why the numbers are there.
it is all clear to me.

i know who i am,
and what i'm supposed to do.
i am the grim reaper,
and i will bring you to your final resting place.
