In Sum

Back before I was born

there was no idea of me,

but all of society knew too well

that me or some body like me,

would be taking a seat in first grade,

projected to be here breathing this atmosphere

and getting taught how rare and beautiful this

sphere, in the middle of "not nowhere"

which is almost exactly like every place else

in the universe,

before I was born my atoms were scattered

all over the globe,

buttercups, worms, and dinosaur poop,

wherever water flowed,

while I am I will take advantage of the gift of life,

I will sing freely yippies morning, noon and night

as long as there is peace within my species,

leave me be, being is enough

if done not under a rock

or under someone's thumb.
