We seek immortality of a kind through leaving a mark.....painting, sculpture, poetry even. The poem is trying to say that if these type of theories about catastrophic world endings are true then our attempts at immortality are doomed to failure......so in that sense it does matter how we die.Or perhaps it doesn't ? Maybe I'm digging a hole here and I should just stop !!

The intended point of the poem is that popular culture and conspiracy theory would have us believe that in the face of these possible scenarios humanity would not endure .......that life is in fact pointless since even our vague traces would be removed.....thus our attempts at immortality are in fact "timelimited"......depressing isn't it ! Having said that there is an intended element of irony in the poem......I'm not wholly of this world view myself !

Thanks for positive comment. I did ponder on the spelling of "revelling" but my English dictionary says double L, so I went with that rather than the Americanism of the Microsoft spell check !

"undulated Satan's poetry" ? Do you really mean it looks like the gently rolling hills of hell or perhaps you just couldn't spell undiluted ?

Quite jolly ! Even for a comic piece the repetition of "go" in lines 5 and 6 is iritating !

Liked the title.....interesting rhyming scheme but found the rhymes themselves too obvious. Content seemed unfocused.... obvious passion but was this written for the reader or the author ?
