Human Sugar Cube

Human Sugar Cube


Is that a sugar cube meant for tea

Seven billion people can't be wrong

If the matter that composes them leaves

What becomes of humans

There becomes a great emptiness

Of course it does, it's gone


The entire population of the Earth

Can fit inside a hand, perhaps the palm

like a cube of sugar but less sweet

A very special hand indeed is needed


It must be alien of course

Stronger than a parallel universe

That much weight in one small space

Would crush the planet and all that's in it

Go right through it like a knife through butter

Back to the infant universe that had a bang


A force in nature born

Matter is really energy

Converted in the void

When removed from humans 

There is a lot of empty

That is how it works

In our universe
