Vital Poem by Paul Butters

Vital

Rating: 5.0


The breathtaking wonders of the universe
Orgasmically explode:
Trillions of stars,
Blindingly bright
With black light.

Black?
Yes, as we can see
But a glimpse
Of their light.
So without US,
All is black
And might as well
Not exist.

We are Vital.
With Us at least
Some light is seen
And admired.
The wonders of our world
And sky
Are acknowledged
And felt
And thought about.

Yet who are "We"?
We are all sentient beings -
Not just humans:
All living things with brains
From ants to whales.

It's worth remembering that.
