Sentience

On occasion, in order to be happy we have to exist and enjoy what we can present tense.

We are complicated flesh and bone with sentience
On a floating rock in
A corner of the universe
It is safe to assume that we can overcome
Our fears and shortcomings
With the mutual understanding that
To be happy, means to give up the notion
That all is cyclical
And exist purely in the moment

Putting things into perspective is always a plus. I like the style. Each line has a different purpose, and the point is made very quickly.
