Our Little Flame (45/365)

A lucky planet
Somewhere
Is a spinning Goldilocks
Not too hot
Not too cold
Juuuust Right

The planet is on fire
Like a flame
Devours oxygen
So does life
Devour energy
A green revolution

Are we a fungus
Which could infect every
Galaxy?
Or are we a flame
Burning bright
On this world’s
Fuel?

A speck of blue
Orbiting a grain of sand
Says there’s
A more important
Story to tell
Than what I was
Afraid of today

It’s hard to keep your sanity
When you look so far away
Or so far within
You leave and come back
But living is like riding a bike
Most of us are on autopilot
Anyway
