Cosmic Caribou

Life seems somewhat trivial,
The world and those we love.
Inconsequential strife when viewed,
A thousand miles above.

Serenity, tranquility,
Swirls of clouds and hues,
Micro-scoped calamity,
Viewed through a hollow tube.

The further out perspective gets,
The less we heed or care.
Suffering, pain, neglect,
No longer forced to bare.

Higher still, reality fades,
Proportions blend, then fuse.
Focus blurs, congruity
Distort, contort, confused.

Animated grains of sand,
Kinetic solitude.
Specks in God's celestial plan,
Cosmic Caribou.
