paperboat

by Jared Fladeland

life is a paper bag
thrown in the wind
rained upon
slowly ripped apart by everything
until it disintegrates into nothing
back into the earth.

i guess it's all in how yo look at it... i don't think it's depressing... for what it's worth...

Another version of the circle of life, no? That's what I see anyway ;) Much love -Kat.

Strong analogy! Brevity emphasizes the message. Pessimistic (though you may say realistic).
