The Happy Accident of Life

Tell me the clouds aren't hung on fishwire That it's chance should trees reach such like a spire That even with elements scrambled so dire This Earth can recover and shan't ever tire At least not in our ages of apes From a crown of thorns To a wound that gapes We keep finding depths Far deeper down In our minds and Our actions Refractions We'll drown
