I AM
I am a Minecrafter that wants a pet anaconda.
I wonder how we, humans, will evolve, in the future.
I hear the stars talking, ever so quietly through the night.
I see Jupiter playing jump rope.
I want to know all the peculiarities that exist.
I am a Minecrafter that wants a pet anaconda.

I pretend that my brother and I are pirate kings.
I feel my jet powered ship ricocheting of mountainous cliffs.
I touch the feathers of my pet parrot as he shouts,"Land ho!"
I worry that the universe is trapped in a tesseract that will bring us back to the beginning of time when the world ends.
I cry for all the lost Holocaust souls that died without anyone caring.
I am a Minecrafter that wants a pet anaconda.

I understand the frustration of not knowing everything.
I say that nothing is impossible, that everything is real that you can possibly think up, but was just real long ago.
I dream of living on the moon.
I try to learn the unknown.
I hope that the rich will equalize themselves with the poor.
I am a Minecrafter that wants a pet anaconda.
