Our Minute

I am the keeper of the Doomsday Clock.

I know what will happen to us.

I know how the world ends, but I don’t tell you.

I keep you in the dark.

I stopped the hands on the doomsday clock at 11:59.

When we met I thought I would turn back the hands on the clock—that I might set the pendulum in reverse.

But you said our fate was sealed and our fate was fatal.

I was smitten.

I’ve set the the works in motion once more—the cogs thunder.

I’ve chosen our minute.

“She passed a sign:
‘YOU ARE NOW ENTERING HOPELESSNESS.
POPULATION: EVERYONE’”
