Millennia of evolution
centuries of meditation
Decades of philosophy
years of revolution
All the laws, literature,
theorems and equations
All the romance, all the love,
all the cravings for the nonexistent
Visions, reflections,
ruminations over
mock-worthy belief-systems
From the being next to you
to being just you
The only difference
making up all the differences
a playful hydrogen,
a reticent nitrogen
or a carbon mingling untimely
with an unwilling oxygen
Single helix, double helix,
rings of benzene
A parody, an orchestra
a soundless musical
A resounding silence
rustling under skin
that our lives, emotions
thoughts and intelligence
serenade to in unison.
