Tik, tik, tik…
A scream or two and then the world blooms with you
You are here, for here you are
Part of the never ending story
You are a sweet cluster of stars, you are
You are a perfect coincidence, you are
You are pain and pleasure and purpose, you are
The sun and moon share a stage, honoured to shine their light upon you
So do not hide from the light, but howl with might
Paint the walls with your blood, smile with your teeth
Drink the milk but not the koolaid, and do not cry when it spills
Make friends and love them, make enemies and thank them
You lucky duck, a goosebump is a reminder you’re living
Do not abandon the ocean, for water has memory and you have a lot to learn
Break the curses
Mend the bonds
Roll the dice
And when time shows itself and knocks thrice
Look up at your sky and scream,
How delightful it is to be this mortal!
Tik, tik, tik…

You and I, I and the tree, are not much different. In fact, they are all composed of elements.
