Our place on earth

We are supported
by that same process
that brought the Earth into being,
that power that spun the galaxies into space,
that lit the sun and brought the moon into its orbit.
Those same forces are still present.
We feel their impact and understand
that we are not isolated in the chill of space
with the burden of the future upon us
and without the aid of any other power.
​
We are supported by that power
that spun the galaxies into space.
