Yet the Sun Rises
We are failing
and falling
and will not
be redeemed,
Yet the Sun rises.
The Earth is warming
and slowing
and will not
be altered,
Yet the Sun rises.
The Universe is expanding
and stumbles upon itself
and will not
be appeased,
Yet the sun rises.
Because without us,
It could not be.

A riff on the philosophical argument of causality; or stated another way, a rock is a rock not because it hurts when we kick it but because we have determined the thing we just kicked is a rock. It is in the naming that the thing assumes identity.
