Firefly

John Prophet

Blinking

in.

Blinking 

out.

Brief

flash of

existence.

Infinite

scales 

abound.

Time and 

space.

Always was.

Always will be.

Human scale

negligible.

Firefly

blink.

Here today

gone 

tomorrow.

Purpose?

Point?

None obvious.

What to do?

What to do

within the

blink?

What to think?

Perspective.

Humility.

Understanding 

of scope.

Here today.

Gone tomorrow.

Never to be

again.

Virtual

particles 

blinking 

in and out

of the

ether.

Nothing

more than

probability.

    Our lives on this are only like a blink of a fireflies light.
