Endless Existence

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Jul 11, 2023 

Endless
existence.
Infinite
time.
Infinite.
space.
Infinite
parallels,
dimensions.
Beyond
human
understanding.
Yet here
we sit.
Came
to be.
Somehow.
Microscopic
speck,
part
of the
whole.
Coping.
Thinking.
Creating
understanding.
Building
scaffolding.
Hanging,
building
civilization
on the
flimsy.
Holding
on.
Self
delusion.
Center
of the
universe.
Convincing
comprehension.
Wispy
sense
of things.
Limited
tools
provided.
Minimal
understanding
within.
Blind
leading the
blind.
Nothing 
ends.
Infinity 
reigns.
