The cold, hard numbers
That our most established scientists
Now conceive
Whether astronomers or physicists,
Leave us with no other choice than to
Make peace with the fact that somebody;
Something out there has
Complete control over our every detail.
And as Sir David F. Attenborough
Would say when witnessing
Some incomprehensible horror of Nature:
One must let it take its course.
We ****, ****, laugh and cherish.
But do we?
There is more to Earth than her worst.
Perhaps we are left with the words of
New Agers, hippies and
Mushroom eaters in the end
To describe reality at last.
Or the poets. Lest we forget
The ******* poets.
