Our short existence
May be but a part
A momentary
Stop along the way
There is no
Real control;
The fates decree.
Though we have
The ability
To make this journey
Better
To fashion
Rewards from
Chaos.
We have thought.
A powerful tool
At our disposal.
Embrace your journey
Regardless.
Suffering
Is ever eminent
No one escapes.
We must not
Live for our fears,
Nor capitulate
Our future.
If we are anything
We are explorers
Of our own minds,
Of our space,
Of the greater
Space around us.
We have great
Imaginings.
We can conjure;
We can cajole.
We belong
To ourselves and each other.
Live this life
As if there were
No other.
