Said the Rock

We watched the rest of you evolve
Into fat, furry animals
With feet. You did not wait for us.
We did not mind. We liked it here.
You act, you see. We contemplate:
Eroding into absurd shapes
Beneath abiding silences.
It is such blissful tedium
To hold a snowflake on one's face
And watch the stars in motion. Ah,
How impatient you people are,
In attack and resistance.
Can you tolerate existence?
