Another New Life

Another new life

Pops into an ocean

Which is already

Full of life . . . . And death —

Unknowing, uncaring and

Unaware of both.

How soon

Will it discover

That the only rule is,

"There are no rules."

The trick is to find rules you can live with —

Make them up as you go.

Go as far with them as you can;

Go beyond as necessary.
