What matters
in this verse full of
    anti-matter
What is substantial
not circumstantial
    of any reality
What holds all of it
all of us in place
     Together
What keeps us spinning
        Going
Perseverance? Or
Perseveration?
What really hurts more
with each revolution
   What gets harder
with each new solution
What is contingent
on our progress
     What are we
striving towards
What is repeated
during this process
What is retained for life
     after death?
What is to blame
for the walking dead
   unable to connect
reincarnation to resurrect
what was lost in time
in between space
What do we see
when our selves
are effaced?
