for the moment

the question

Dear unanswerable creator.
Oh, merciful and carelessly brutal lord.
We are alive for a moment.
We have our pleasures and despairs.
We seem but episodes in a series.
A question whispered, like gentle breathing:
Do our frolics play on in astral syndication
or are we recycled into cosmic dust?

We are starstuff... Laws say energy is neither created nor destroyed - merely(?) transformed. At times of extreme stress and personal peril of those (even us) we care about ...we gain personal and mental strength with faith we can't understand having or even still having. I guess that IS what hope really IS - ya know?

intriguing question here, this is wonderful
