Life Goes By
Life goes by
With us
Or without us
Despite us
All around us
But for how long?
Just once
On a bombarded rock
Dancing in the rain
Wearing just one sock
A profound dunce capered.
Opher – 25.6.2022
It always seems amazing to me that on this tiny barren rock, in the middle of a vast ocean of stars, life began.
So much we don’t understand.
So much awe and wonder.
So many coincidences.
Instead of appreciating the stupendous circumstances that surround us we have to make up rigid fables and tie ourselves down.
Instead of respecting the wonders we are surrounded with we have to carelessly ignore them, destroy them and try to rule over them.
I can’t help thinking that we’re destined for a big fall.
