ESSENTIAL INEVITABILITY
ESSENTIAL INEVITABILTY I am a brief flame
A dying ember
Of a star
Raging far into the universe
Part of an event
Magnificent
Glorious and holy
This humanikind
Meaningful insignificance
Born to
Essential inevitability
Of death and resurrection
Holding my own
Part of a Whole
Through
And
Beyond an End I look back to see
The moment behind me
Already my history
Singular yet universal
By design.
I am
Fading away
Soon to be a stronger flame
In some other time
In some other space…
In a holier place
A dying ember
Of a star
Raging far into the universe
Part of an event
Magnificent
Glorious and holy
This humanikind
Meaningful insignificance
Born to
Essential inevitability
Of death and resurrection
Holding my own
Part of a Whole
Through
And
Beyond an End I look back to see
The moment behind me
Already my history
Singular yet universal
By design.
I am
Fading away
Soon to be a stronger flame
In some other time
In some other space…
In a holier place
