THE ONLY LESSON WORTH REMEMBERING (An Original Poem)

if nature teaches us anything
it’s that:

patience and change
are the rules
that govern everything

look at everest
that big ass mountain
way taller and bigger than your fears,

even that’ll turn to dust or
lie at the bottom of an ocean
again

all from that gentle breeze
that blows your hair back
tiny continental movements
shifting beneath your
bare feat.

eventually
eventually

we’re all process
it’s all process

nothing is small
everything is big
and

it all matters.
