• My beloved Children of the Earth!
• You dwell in a minuscule marble of sapphire and emerald –
• A meek jewel in the outskirts of my dominion,
• The Vast Expanse of Nothing and Everything.
• My Eternal Slumber has come to an end.
• In the palm of my hand, I hold you
• And with weary eyes, I examine you
• And nothing has changed.

• How are you?
• I understand.

• You are helpless, stuck in an endless cycle
• Of Order and Chaos, Stasis and Progress,
• Oblivion and Enlightenment,
• Birth and Death, Growth and Decay.
• The perpetual swing of the Pendulum
• That is your Collective Existence
• Used to feel so nauseating,
• Now it just lulls you to sleep.

• Is it exhausting?
• I understand.

• How is it that you are restless and worn out
• When you have been so perfectly still?
• Gaze into the Cosmic Mirror.
• What a piece of work you are!
• Par for the course.
• It is hard to veer off of your stupor
• When you see yourself as nothing more than
• Seven billion Specks of Sentient Dust.

• Are you longing for repose?
• I understand.

• Look within you and look deep.
• Look beyond and peer through the bounds of your perception.
• It cannot be elusive
• If you have been grasping it all along.
• A Scintilla of Fervor.
• To light up or to burn down?
• You are the Fuel and the Fire.
• You are The Beginning and The End.
