We Went Outside To Dance In It

We went outside to dance in it
but in the morning it was gone.
We let our bodies go soggy
With the first sign of the apocalypse
and expect to die,
but the morning comes:
we are alive.
We soak up what god sent to smite us.
"BUILD AN ARC BOYS"
We cry,
our hysteria, our hearts resigned.
But in the morning
our feet have dried,
though our socks are wet,
and the world is the same as it always was.
And we went outside to dance in it.
