Essence

The essence of me

is the essence of you,

for our protons and neutrons

came from the same universe.

The iron in my blood was made

in the heart of a star,

same as yours.

There is a force in the universe –

not quite like The Force of Star Wars –

that binds us all together.

Call it physics, call it spirituality;

We have more in common

than we do different.
