Cosmic Cocktail

We drift aimlessly Upon a delicate mode of dust A choice, not ours to make Existing because we must Absorbing what must be known Experience is just what we feel Careening across the universe The blind hand of fate on the wheel Or perhaps we're afloat in a cosmic concoction A galaxy an abyss in a blender There's a giant out there who's just like me On the brink of a black hole bender. A starry malt of Milky Way A giant who drinks alone I wish he'd guzzle to dull his pain So I won't need a drink for my own.
