yes, i am dying
and aren’t we all
forgive me please
but all these trees
as well
are bound to fall

look at them sway
oh sure
they’re here today
but tomorrow

everything dies it is known
from the moment our proverbial mortal coil is shown
it begins
the end

and yes again my bright young friend
entropic transformation
informs us that nothing is ever truly destroyed
but tell me which is worse

to know this life as the spiritual incarnation of the universe
an amazingly complex and beautiful structure that once manifest
can never be replicated and once gone
is gone

or is it better that you and i are simply moving through time and space changing forms with nothing particularly special about any of it but a face
then it’s all just the eternal movement of matter
and so it doesn’t

if one of us lives
or dies
are we so cursed
ok so

you first

Peace
