Wastin' youth...

Findin' meanin'
in a sliver of the universe
is
rare
yet not as rare
as
findin' that another's
meanin'
in the sliver
pairs with yours.

Could be not a
meanin' but a
way
of
survivin'
'cause that's
what it's
all
about.

Conviction sure is funny
and
rehearsal's a prank.

Footholds are learned
but
pushin' on blindly's a gift.

Fittin' my pieces shall teach
me
to embrace the
five
billion
nine.hundred.ninety.nine
million
nine.hundred.ninety.nine
thousand
nine.hundred.ninety.nine.
other entitities of my
existence.
