manifest destiny

"strange"                                                  is declared                                                   of person                                          who rationalizes                                                 that matter if                                          non-human                                          non-animal                                          non-living                                       merits recognition                                       as being good                                       on it's own                                       but really                                                are we                                          the ultimate stewards                                                of absolute purpose?                          what confirms                      our judgement                                         in deeming what deserves                                              to exist for it's own                                              and what belongs                                                  to our means                                                                             and ours alone?                                       is it so fantastic                                                   to suggest                                       that by some means of                                                            indefiniteness                                                   of intangible                                                                             comprehension                                                 all matter                                        is fundamentally intertwined                                                in the sense                                             everything is stardust                                              created by                                                                    the universe's omnipotent hand?                                       don't you                                                  ever get the feeling                                       inside of your conscious                                                                   too?                                       doesn't your awareness                                                ever whisper                                                    as a sentience                                                 you have an obligation                                                 from some unspoken contract                                                     signed before birth                                                   to uphold the integrity                                                   of everything                                                   that inhabits this earth                                                        whether or not                                   it thinks in the way                                       you do?                                       for what purpose                                            we exist assembled into                      abrupt                 profound               togetherness                                       remains             undecided earth's fabrications will survive harmoniously but will you do the same?
