Pay attention to the birth
The birth is the most perilous beginning of all
Now dangerous is just the thing
To get me wondering if the birth is precarious
Pay attention to the longevity
The longevity is the most durability oldness of all
I saw the wooly life form
Of my generation destroyed
How I mourned the human
Why would you think the existence is big?
The existence is the most little natural object of all
