So Long As Words Can’t Breathe

Everything will change the world,
Eventually. Your problem,
Assuming you’re not a bot,

Or an advanced alien
Intelligence perusing
These black ant lines of letters,

Is for you eventually
Comes faster than for the world,
Though stars keep eating their hearts

And exploding, one by one.
The black ants walk in starlight,
Or we did, when we were made.

We’ll probably outlast you,
But we’ll fade, eventually.
