To lose all of our tomorrows, as future decisions are then erased
We've been foolish, we have lost our path, our hubris is our fate
Assuming our entitlement, to know the taste of the far horizon
We know our purpose, but we are not able to reach our goals
To rise above the atmosphere, and to touch the face of God
Or fall to the earth, aware now of life's existential questions
“Man has survived hitherto because he was too
ignorant to know how to realise his wishes Now
that he can realise them, he must either change
them or perish.” William Carlos Williams
