The Lost Realist


We, Humanity

We are,
Just a bunch of molecules,
Floating around aimlessly,
Doing something meaningful -
In accidental harmony.

We are,
A group of organs,
Doing their job, day and night,
Doing something together -
In accidental synchrony.

We are,
A group of animals,
Lusting and making lust,
Creating offsprings together -
Accidental fecundity.

We are,
A group of lovers,
Loving and making love,
Nurturing children together -
Accidental humanity.

We are,
A group of explorers,
Learning and helping,
Creating a new world for each other -
Accidental divinity.

We are,
A small speck in the universe,
Floating infinitely into infinity,
Too self-involved to notice -
Accidental inanity.

We are,
A beautiful accident,
In a universe where
Accident is the hand of God.
We are Humanity.

May we be good to ourselves and the universe and realize that the only good that will ever happen is what we do by our own hands and hearts. We are the creators and destroyers. We are the universe incarnate.
