whether colliding as fast as particles smashing together for man's curiosity
or moving only as slow as the divisions of the most inactive mitotic cells
while there are stars at your fingertips
and entire galaxies dotting the vacuum of space that separate us
does anything even matter?

looking elsewhere for answers becomes futile
when there's only one certain truth:
the steady beat of life in the unpredictable environment of our universe
wouldn't exist if it didn't matter

anti matter dark matter dark energy matter
red giants white dwarves black holes pulsars
nebulas stars star systems galaxies universes dimensions
our heavens our earth our moon our sky you and i
all matter.
all.
matter.
