What do I know
I move without knowing

When man finished their walk about on the moon
I came to be

That crook was leaving office
The lights were going out and cars sputtering

I grew up in a soup of

Plastic
Chemicals
Kool Aid
And
High fructose corn syrup

BPA courses through my veins
Mercury shines in my iris

Did my generation stand a chance
We span the analog and digital

ADHD OCD ABC XYZ
Acronyms tattooed on my soul

Row together
Or drown alone

Our lives are spacetime braids
The particles of You moving through time and space

Perhaps we are living out our lives as simulations
Quantum fluctuations on the surface of a black hole
At the end of time

The Redwoods tower
The waves crash
The sky burns blue, white and gray
The wind blows on my face
The soft smells of good earth on my hands
The still waters lay before me
The warm sun on my face filling my soul
Food and drink fill my belly

I’m alive
Connected to all
Not a waste of space
Joyful

The secrets of the Universe will come another time
Pull up a front row seat to the Apocalypse
