We are like
Cardboard boxes
That can fold
In upon themselves
A million times
We are bodies
Made up of
60 percent
Water
(Almost
80 percent
In our brains)
We are like
The solar system —
Mostly empty
Space
This should comfort
And consternate us
All of that
Room
For God knows
What
Sometimes
We are the most
Supported
By that
Which is the most
Maleable
Contained in that
Which is
Practically
Limitless
You can always
Grow more
Multiply higher
Divide further
Fall farther
In love
