Repetition

The universe,

The floating rock that I call "home",

And life

Has existed far longer than I have.

People before me inhabited the space that I am in currently.

They felt things

And did things too.

Things that I've done

That were new concepts and ideas at the time

But now here I am

A copy

Feeling emotions

That have been felt

Ingesting sips of liquids that have previously passed through pairs of lips

Bigger than mine

With kinder words too.

A mouth that once exhaled original ideas.

I drink it anyway

I repeat it anyway

Even my tears have been shed before.

I am doomed.

Living in a generation

In a universe

 On a floating rock

That's already seen it all before.
