15,591. INTERDICTION

INTERDICTION
Stop ye the running of the tramps;
cease now the kindling of new flame.
This world is over quickly, and the
lions were never tamed.
-
We burned the gorges and set fire
to the hills; the valleys flooded and
all mankind perished once again.
-
On tablets are etched the works of
men : toil, labor, destruction, and
then  -  warfare, kind and gentle,
as over as quickly as begun.
