what’s a legacy to an ever-spinning web
    an apathetic world
               already on to the next meme
a laugh can last longer than
  your     entire     life’s     catalogue
impact buried under coded language
and refreshing trends

if a spider cared
it would wrap its prayers in silk
   before spewing its insides
but the net is wider than floating words
or hollow deeds
                                     **** your ego

we are only passing through
              dust     to     dust
in death we are nothing
“What type of legacy would you like to leave behind when it’s all said and done?”
Inspired by this interview of Mike Tyson:
