Fragile
by D. Savannah George

How fragile we are
How fragile our skin
This wrapping around us
To keep it all in
The buildings we build
The flowers we grow
Trees we sit under
The things that we know
How fragile our knowledge
The things we create
Our science, our artists,
Presidential debates
They vanish tomorrow
Ecosystems are gone
Great cities in ruin
How fragile our song --
How fragile our bodies,
How fragile we are
The universe shatters ----
I just saw a star.
