Everything

Take a look at the universe
What do you see?
Collections of specks
Spinning in the black sea of space

Look at these specks
What do you see?
Entire Galaxies

What comprises the Galaxies
But collections of specks
Swarming in the black sea of space

What are the specks
But entire planets
The Earth one among
Countless nameless orbs

Take a look at the Earth
What do you see?
Clumps of Land
Floating in a vast sea of salty water

Look to the Land
Stretches of silent soil
Spotted by collections of specks
Cities

Cities of specks of Humans
Swarming the streets
Sitting on the couches
In the grids of high rise buildings

Take a look at the Human
What do you see?
A skin sack of salty water
In which the Organs float

Every Organ a collections of Molecules
Themselves comprised of Atoms
Themselves comprised of Electrons
Orbiting their Neutron Proton anchors

Between the charges
Empty space
Vast distances separating
Negative from Positive

Take a look at the Proton
What do you see?
Quarks described by Probability
Comprised of

Nothing.
