In the first minute
My daughter smiles and says I love you Dad.
In the second minute
A cyclist swears at a passing car.
In the third minute
A husband calls his wife a cow.
In the fourth minute
A passing Bee pollinates a flower.
In the fifth minute
A child falls and grazes her knee.
In the sixth minute
A plane passes high overhead.
In the seventh minute
Somewhere in the distance a cock crows twice.
In the eighth minute
The same cock crows thrice.
Then within seconds the world is pitched to densest black.
Temperatures plummet to zero absolute,
as all life on Earth comes to an eternal halt.
