It buzzed for weeks, a tiny sigh.
A hum that meant it would soon die.
Then just a click, a soft, quick pop,
and everything just had to stop.
The kitchen corner, black, complete.
A sudden dark, not bittersweet.
Just gone.
I climbed a chair, reached up to see.
A broken worm, just black debris.
The glass still warm, a scent of dust.
A thing that was, now simply rust.
