I am an immaterial ethereal man
People pass through me and
don’t even notice
I am as substantial as a breath
or heartbeat
I am as alive as my thoughts
I am at home outside this universe
I am lost nowhere
I am never alone
I am on fire
a puff of smoke
dissolving

I was there when the sun started shining
I will be there when it stops
I will cling like wet snow on a branch
I will decide for myself how long to hold on
before melting away
I will heal or decay as nature wishes
I will console myself with illusions
I will be an immaterial man
