The Global Claustrophobic

I feel claustrophobic being anchored to the will of gravity.
Unable to connect to the tendrils of another galaxy-
let alone our own.

What a foolish thought,
to be claustrophobic on a giant blue rock.
I should be infinitely grateful. 
To be alive in this specific place and time.
Grateful for the chance to live and just breathe.
To set a pace to create a new age law of gravity. 


To be grateful for every breath is the antidote
for this global claustrophobic mindset...
