Stillness is a funny thing

Considering the world is of constant spin

And movement is of commonplace

To our species known as the human race

And even in trying it’s an impossible feat

For our hearts strike on at a constant beat

Our heads filter thoughts at an incredible rate

Our souls beckon feelings of love and hate

Nature and structures are better than us

At keeping still and collecting dust

Yet they are injected with life in the wind and the rain

As if their lover had called on their name

But it seems that these things have no say in the matter

No choice in moving unlike the latter

We mobile creatures who stare choice in the face

What a beautiful facet of the human race
