One calorie.

Maybe two.

But one is better than none.

I shove the few remaining

pods in my pockets

to save for later.

DIMMING

The sky continues to dim.

Soon it will be dark again,

and I still haven’t found shelter.

I still haven’t found Dad.

Then I hear the booms

and freeze in fear.

More storms. More water.

I can’t sleep on the canyon floor.

I pick up as much speed as I can,

jogging and stumbling,

panting and dizzy,

trying to beat

the fading light.

It might happen again.

Dad’s face filled with terror.

There won’t be any moonlight.

My body frozen in fear.

I won’t see the ground to run away.

Tremors beneath our feet.

I won’t see the walls to climb them.

Shuddering all around us.

I will hear it.

Roaring like a train.

I will feel it.

Trembling like an earthquake.

But I won’t see it coming.

Enormous wall of water.
