I am nothing
you are nothing
and we are laying here
decomposing
and opening up to the earth
while the sun flies overhead
and the river flows below

we are all shifting
at the same rate
and we are all spinning at the same pace
we all have the same weight
except for the remote polar regions

between
the nucleus
and electrons
is a world of space
millions
and
millions
of
fucking backyard parties
tonnes of lifetimes and children
and garbage
insurmountable unmountable amounts of garbage

and we are nothing,
watching,
with two eyes
and a brain
to put it all together
and write crappy poetry
attempting to explain it all
