Choices

.
Stare
into the blank universe
Shout
I don’t deserve this
Watch
the indifferent molecules shrug, move on
.
Look
into the book called history
Cultivate
nostalgia for a past that’s not your own
Lie
about it
.
Take
a cup of wonder
Drink it,
deep and cold
Thank
whatever’s there (or not)
.
Choose.
