Danaides
condemned to severe punishment in hell
compelled to fill with water
a vessel full of holes
water runs out as soon as poured in
their labor was infinite
punishment eternal
Sisyphus
tried to cheat death
carries a perpetual boulder
up the hill to see it roll back down again
Now the multiverse
peering into the unseen
universe beyond universe
endless explanations

NaPiWriMo Day 12 prompt on past and future based on two dictionaries Lempriere’s Classical Dictionary and the Historical Dictionary of Science Fiction
