After an existential crisis,
What does one do?
A continuing struggle
To come to terms with
Insignificance.
Should I become a writer?
Would I become the next
Hemingway; Fitzgerald; JK Rowling; Tolkien?
Should I become a musician?
Remembered among
Mozart; Beethoven; Queen?
Denying death by significance
Like heads of state
Or celebrity icons
And yet
All stars fade.
All things
Must come to an end.
We have but a short time
So it be spent wisely
Take care of each other
And live life to the fullest.
Take charge of your life
And leave the world a little better for you being in it.
