The Multitudinous Conversation

by Mary E. Lowd

A Deep Sky Anchor Original


The universe is a machine
For generating conversations;
When every possible conversation
Has been had,
The multi-verse will be complete.

So when you’re having a conversation,
You’re doing the work
Of realizing the purpose
Of the universe.

Even if it’s only a conversation
With yourself,
(You’re not alone;
You have yourself)
You are what the universe
Is trying to be.

Some conversations
Feel better than others.
When you’re in a good one,
You are lucky. When not,
Or when silence reigns,
Form the words in your mind.
Be the voice
The universe needs.

Help make the universe
Complete.
