Reading Time: < 1 minute
I am on some virtual beach.
The water is still and calm.
I pick up a handful of stones
and throw them into the air
watching the splashes like
exploding grenades in Ukraine
disturbing that peace
I first discovered.
My effect on the World
is there to see,
but it is so short lived,
in the blink of an eye
all seems to be
as it was before me -
but actually I have
changed it in an
unalterable way.
