Envy by PST-Magnus, literature
Literature
Envy
Beneath the hollow, starless sprawl of night,
Where shadows writhe in silence, cold and tight,
A serpent stirs, its coils of void unbound,
Its venom whispers where no hope is found.
The earth, a corpse; the sky, a gaping maw,
Time drips like blood from entropy’s raw claw.
No gods remain to mock the fleeting breath;
All things are ash, all roads converge in death.
Yet still it festers envy’s blackened seed,
A hunger born of nothing’s endless greed.
For what is left to crave in this abyss,
But ruin’s kiss upon what ruin is?
The mountains crumble, seas dissolve to dust,
And yet the serpent writhes in ceaseless lust.
Its fangs sink deep into the void’s own skin,
Devouring all that never could have been.
No sun will rise; no dawn will break this spell.
The cosmos rots within its shattered shell.
And envy laughs a hollow, soulless sound,
For even nothing envies what’s not found.
