Explorer

The universe is without
a brain to hold
the truth it finds.
It creates life
to answer what it cannot,
the questions
that keeps the universe expanding.

That creation
is an explorer
finding answers
that life needs to uncover.
The truths they find
causes their brains to pulsate
and shed
releasing the parts
the intelligent life cannot accept
as if the answers are incomprehensible.

Intelligent life
cannot accept
its purpose
to keep the universe expanding
and to consider the possibility
that its birth is meant
to continue life.

Once the answers are given
and life is satisfied
will that creation die out
and give space for what is
to come next?
If that is true
do we want to give life
the answers it seeks
or allow the answers
to shrivel and die within us?

Thanks for reading.
