Final Destiny Poem by Aaron Lynn

The profoundest of all truths,
The absolute pinnacle of irony
Is that the man who pillaged cities
Who carved out his own world
He who discovered patterns
Of life
Of nature
He who voyaged into the galaxies
Who poised upon the moon
All of these men are demonstrative
Of the truth of Sagan
They are the universe
Though fragile
Though limited
Whose final destiny lies
In the mulching jaws of the worm
Yet existence continues
In the grander scheme
And the spirit of indifferent cohesion
Reigns supreme
Always.
