One Atom

So we sing our songs And take our steps As joints grow red and Knuckles thick, thick, thick We release threads of Grace Now we understand "All the world's a stage" and Sing silence is golden, golden, golden Memories like dust in the wind We smile at raindrops on the line Leaves floating away Floating away, so faraway We delight going to sleep A silly, silly sleep Contraction and expansion of Time No longer a maddening mystery Our creations bright as bangles But circles in our minds We giggle knowing math A language of the Universe Crimson carriages across space Angels and goblins hold hands We are one atom, one atom Only one glorious Atom
