All the little animals swam up to feel the air that day.
They danced in the water like they never had before.
I know they did.
My science teacher says that they never knew it was coming.
And he says they all went slowly, one by one.
But I know.
I know that Pre-Cambria was full to the brim
With light on its last day.
The last breath of the old world was never a deflating, normal
Sigh, like they say it was.
It was a gasp.
