                        And as she talked of love that lived on after death
                        & spirits in the air & karma
                        & all the ghosts that she had seen
                        And as she talked of Universal connections
                        Life's ebb and flow
                        Astronomy and tarot
                        I thought,
                        "You fool."
                        Isn't it enough
                        The stars and the moon
                        The streets and the stones
                        Art and movies, books and coffee
                        & the way we build our homes
                        Isn't it enough
                        The love between us and within us
                        Aren't we enough?

                        Tides and clouds
                        Space, history, time
                        Life, every moment of it
                        Every drop of it.
