A wee collection of acrostics about life in general. They don't rhyme.
Something's always about to go wrong.
Cern Reactor will destroy the world?
It seems unlikely.
Evolution angers the Gods?
Notice it is part of the plan.
Can anyone see the irony?
Everything has a survival instinct.

Really not as bad as it's made out
Everyone worships the same thing
Losing sight of that is easy for some
Igniting flames of fear and hatred
Getting a little bit over the top
It's time to chill, folks, honestly
Only idiots fight over an idea
Normal people discuss them.

Like a gift you never asked for
Inspired yet intimidating
Finding patterns in chaos
Ecstasy traded for confusion

Does it really mean the end?
Everything fading to black
Atoms our only soul
There's no way of knowing
Here's to hoping for more

Hitting your head off a brick wall
Everything right but wrong
Listening to the bad advice
Living in invisible chains

Everyone looks for something
No one seems to
Lift the stone
It lies right beneath the surface
Growing clearer by the day
History proves all good things come in time
The water breaks
Encased in bottomless joy
Never coming up for air
Making every wrong move but going
Exactly where you're supposed to
Not looking where you step
The river runs deep

H
istory compressed into one instant
Everything at your fingertips
Allowing for the odd challenge, of course
Vitality pervades the air
Everything to everyone
No better rest.
