The world is a continuum
Simply revolving on its own accord,
Despite the path its occupants take.
The day we realize
That we are nothing more
Than a collection of atoms and cells
A mass taking up air and space
The day we realize this
Is the day we all stop moving
The day we all collapse
Under the realization
That we mean nothing
We are insignificant.
We carry on in our selfish ways
But that day will never come
Because we will never cease to indulge
In our own selfish fantasies
That we mean something
That we are of significance
But this is all, but a lie
I have a challenge for you...have you ever heard of a prose poem? I don't know why, but when I read this poem I immediately thought of a prose poem, maybe just to try sometime...
