I was once a bird,
Soaring on thermals of light
With feathers of infinite might.
I was once a fish,
Whose resonating scales
Opened the gates
To the sounds of awe.
I was once a spider,
Eight eyes of infinite sight
Spinning a shimmering web to unite
Temporal dimensions to all directions.
I am a human,
Beating on sticks with stones
Consumed with appreciation
For the destruction
Of the Divine Gift.
