Just a bit too soon, we forget our innocence, so as to regret any choice we ever make.
“Oh my God! How did we come to talk so loud! Holy Shit! The way we keep on clustering!”
When cloistered next to nothing at the bottom end of faith, hope is but a curiosity to entertain.
We’re only here a little while. We’re only here until we’re gone. Just long enough to wonder “What the fuck is going on?”
Just a bit too soon, we have to greet the infinite, as it makes a joke of everything we’ve ever known.
In the end, there isn’t a conclusion. It’s just, “Sorry Sir, we appreciate you coming out and being here. Best of luck, now here's the door”.
You’ve got to laugh into the void. You’ve gotta smirk and cut the cord. Ten billion balls of gas all burn, at least for now, until they don’t.
