Feel Like Thinking? Poem by francis e.rudy

as i lay thinking
i wonder about above
do any creatures, other than man love?

when you step on an ant does another
ants heart break?

if you think that's deep
try this:

what about the stars bright
and the suns light

are they afraid to touch their own
for fear of starting a cancer in the sky

and as it goes why do they resemble so
an atom?

are we only a hangnail on the finger of god?
is size only relative?

so much to think about
as i thought of my friend

why is he preoccupied with suicide
doesn't he know?

dust to dust, doom to bloom
ashes to ashes, die as he must!

i'm sorry to say there's no where better than this
oh i do believe in reincarnation

but does anyone realize how long it takes
for dust to a human make?
