Literature Text

these weary atoms are constantly
wreathed into genetic ornaments and
recycled from human to human.

i can trace my veins off into the brazen
custody of our prescribed atmosphere.

bring me to where the world ends
and the horizon collides with the heavens,
because i'd like to recreate myself into
something new.

or at least fade among the hydrogen
furnaces, returning to a cosmic cradle.
"Our planet, our society, and we ourselves are built of star stuff."

-- Carl Sagan (Cosmos)

My writing's been wonky for the past few days. :noes: I'm not sure if I like it.
