THE TRAGEDY OF ATOMS

To have a material form

To be composed of atoms

Is potentially tragic

Because once atoms become a Somebody

They don't easily become a Nobody again

The atoms cling together insisting on the form

That the guiding intelligence gave them

The tragedy of atoms

Is that they must eventually let go

Re-form, become something new

But what about the guiding intelligence

The blueprint, the program?

That is indestructible, e-ternal

Outside of time but inside of us.
