Suspended Are We

Suspended are we

in this life -

between birth and death;

earth and sky;

friends and family.

Atoms and electrons

making us just 4% matter

the rest as yet unknown.

We pass through

time and space

like a loose butterfly net

thinking we are solid -

certain of ourselves.

But even our 4% matter

is mostly water -

itself a loose liquid.

That thought you just had?

A watery chemical reaction.

We are so sure of ourselves,

in our houses, jobs and cars.

but our life, our fears, our dreams

are just a tiny oscillation

in the fabric of spacetime.

Reason to be pessimistic?

Nah, this means we can have a shitload of fun and get away with it!!!
