Everything Settles

It’s going to work out.
It always does,
really,
in the final analysis.
Everything goes according to the plan
of God
or Gaia
or secular humanism personified
in the shape
of a moron named Hank.

Things work out
the way they should
because if you run the camera long enough
everything settles.
Everything stabilizes.

This may not be a happy thing.
It may result in something truly and colossally awful
but it will RESULT
and you can rest easy
in the promise
of that eventual ending.

You
and I
and all others
will end up supplying the world
with exactly what it needs:
fertilizer to produce the next generation.

It goes the way it should
and that’s good
though not always for you.
