Terminus is a dialogic poem in three Cantos and a Prologue to evoke the scene of anguish and distress of humankind's second dissolution. The drama depicts the birth of a new, undefiled world populated by chaste and unsullied mortals who eventually reveal characters governed by greed, lust, and a forceful search for personal power over others. Ultimately, the total scene of corruption brings about the total destruction of this second world and all things in it by the vast and mighty forces of Nature.
