Fate

We look for shapes in the clouds And the stars Searching for meaning in what is meaningless A point in what is arbitrary We look for inspiration In the slums of warriors Placed in the sky by the gods We search for a message In light that was created before our ancestors breathed But all we find is what we can create Stories shaped by our perspective Written from our histories Created from our position in the universe There is nothing written in the stars but What we write ourselves
