Insignificant
October 7, 2016
You are one person
Out of 7 billion people
On one planet
Out of 8 planets
In one star system
Out of 100 billion star systems
In one galaxy
Out of 100 billion galaxies
You are enormously insignificant.
But out of 100 billion galaxies
Existing in 100 billion star systems
And out of 7 billion people,
You have your own genetic makeup
Your thumbprint is yours alone
You can create art
And build skyscrapers,
You are enormously significant.
