Dancing With Eternity

chances less than one in a centillion
we became human not penicillin
born to planet spiraling around sun
swift journey through life only just begun
not capable of fending for ourselves
relying on what parenting compels
'til point of making our own decisions
despite doubt, false starts and some derision
whether worker, lawyer, doctor or star
we struggle to be sure of who we are
we fabricate our own evolution
hopefully making some contribution

through trials, tribulation, perversity
we dance our own dance with eternity

Heya NG one little, or perhaps big observation, when dealing with eternity all odds are pretty much the same, given enough time all things will happen an infinite amount of times, even oblivion, one to ponder, cheers David
