What would you do
if everyone
suddenly turned
to stone...

except 
for
you.

Just a bunch of
human shaped
rocks sitting
around.

Would you panic
or would you enjoy 
the still silent peace 
of it all?

No nagging siblings
no hurtful words
no pandemic to be caught –
life with ease.

You would see the world of
soft, quiet nature
surround
you.

You would see the walls 
that humans built crumble,
no use for them now
or ever.

You would see the world
as it would be
or maybe even should be
without a collapsing species.

You would see in your old age
the earth
healing
softly and powerfully.

Maybe someday
we could all just
turn to 
stone.
