"Cataclysm II" - acrylic/oil on board (original painting)

I could see the old decomposing world
and from its death-reeking body to originate new worlds.
New small egg-worlds ready to create life.
And then I tasted my lips.
The sepulchral flavour was gone forever.
I had been the only survivor to see that life-giving spectacle.

This painting was inspired by photos of Mammatus Clouds as I showed you in my previous post:
