Hope, a funny thing

Hope, a plant you leave accidentally on purpose without water for weeks that stays as green as it was the last time you showed it compassion.

Hope, pre treating your favorite knit sweater knowing the coffee won't budge.

Hope, a loyal furry friend waiting expectantly at the door for your return the moment you leave.

Hope, a funny thing. Without warrant but still a necessity for survival.

Hope, an irreversible conditioning of the universe, perhaps our most powerful tool for existing.

Hope, humanity's bargaining chip for a second chance.
