The End of The World by Luis Cuauhtemoc Berriozabal

P1140673

The dogs stopped barking.

Night birds ceased their song.

A haze blanketed the moon

and the stars. Crickets wept


in silence. Something was

in the works. Perhaps

the end of the world.


I stood in my room looking

out the window at the

sky searching out UFO’s.


No one else was awake.

I was the lone mad man

searching out extra-terrestrials.

I was through searching for love.

Brooklyn's Julianna Barwick builds beauty by layering and looping angelic noises and notes she releases into the atmosphere until sleep-dream patterns are formed. "Choose" can be found on her brand new ep, Florine.
