Ripples
A Poem

We are all just ancient cosmic vessels of organic
energy and memories. In love with violence, sex,
heartbreak and constantly creating enemies.
We are all conscious, sedimentary stones
woven together by flesh and bone,
destined to make ripples.
We are born desperate children,
desperately in constant need to suckle
contaminated milk from Mother Nature’s
sacred nipples. We are addicted to siphoning
radiation from the immortal breast of our
archaic universe.
Animals and kingdoms.
Extroverts and introverts.
We’re too old to know the past
and too young to see the future.
We’re crippled intergalactic gladiators,
who fancy dying by excessive sugar
and wasting away precious seconds
in front of personal computers.
