On a Whim
Every once in an eternity, an eon or three,
It seems absolutely necessary
For me to acknowledge death's presence,
Then step back, take a refreshing breath
So immortally deep
That even the stars shiver, flicker, quiver;
Otherwise, I'd grow complacent,
Forget that though quietus isn't that immense
And existence does progress,
Sunrise to sunset, incessantly,
Perpetuating the generations of me, infinitely,
God can erase Genesis and the end, on a whim.
