Do


The science of life is within you.

Your body pulsates with the oscillation of electrons.

Each component of your being

is filled with energy from without

and transformed and permutated by cycles within you.

You are kinetic, dynamic, fecund.

You are the universe child,

potent and capable.

 

And how do you respond?

Ignorance.

Apathy.

Yes, you are small,

a mere quark in an infinite sea.

You are not divine, but a fortuitous happenstance.

It’s not hard to find a way;

just ride in the breeze and sway with the waves.

 

So go.

Be.

You are the universe child,

potent and capable.
