№ 487: Cheery Thought

Say what you will and do what you must,
at the end of the day, your destiny's dust.
High time we recognize come end of game,
meteor hits and we're all the same:
billionaires, paupers, soldiers, civilians;
mammals, birds, flowers, fishes, reptilians;
bacteria, viruses, all plants, all creatures;
ants, beetles, cockroaches. Sunday School teachers.
In the long run no one survives anyhow,
the problem's surviving the here and the now.
Every day is the how and the why
you learn to arrange that other things die.
Your purpose in living, your reason for being?
Generating unending streams of some genes.
