O modern human,
so advanced,
and yet still frail,
lift your eyes
above your little life,
so beholden to
those precious things
that do not live
but live in you,
and look out to
the great and noble sky
that says at once
you are small, you are large,
you are feeble, you are strong,
you are more than
just this tiny sum.
