You are the universe

Why do we share a planet?
Why are you sharing your planet?

When the rain begins to fall and snowflakes dance across your windshield and play along with your snowmen, you never ask yourself about the loneliness within the trees that grieve the loss of their leaves, turning numb underneath the cold that wraps around their lean trunks like hands around a neck before murder.

You are not greater than the clouds above you or cleaner than the dirt below you or smarter than the frogs in the ponds you pollute or more worthy than the same set of eyes and beating heart multiplied by billions around you.
