I watched as my brother lay dying one day
The deep sorrow of loss, the idea of decay
Then I shrank and I shrank to a molecule size
And spectacular change came to molecule eyes
I listened as great cries of freedom rang out
As the strength of the repeating pattern died out
Like an end to dictatorship, molecules free
To once again be who they wanted to be
"Death is not extinguishing the light; it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come." Rabindranath Tagore
