I Thank Science & A Little Luck
The day I die, the world will be abuzz,
alive with the kinetics of its inhabitants –
babies being born
the ache of a first heartbreak
a celebrity snapping a selfie by a fantastic pool
one man celebrating his retirement
musicians creating new songs & artists new colors
-and I will know how lucky I was to have shared the Earth’s energy.
The day I die, my fragment of this energy goes back to them all.
