Humanity's Taunting Twilight

Twilight taunts today again
as the world enters darkness unwilling.
It is carelessly embraced by serpent jaws,
into its constricting belly,
where life and purity are sucked away
as it sojourns the night,
emerging a new world on a new day.
The serpent expels its ruined
egg-shelled edifice to the morning sun.
