How We Stay Alive. By O.b.i

Words put together to form phrases, phrases and more words then we have sentences and then a story
Stories; the only proof of our existence. Depending on who you ask, they'll tell you it took a black hole, millions of years and changes, and how those ones adaptable to change became us, became different kinds of us; 4 legs, 3 layers of skin, 2 wings, 1 purpose... Survival

If you ask others, they might tell you of a vacuum and the breath that changed clay to flesh and the the rib that went missing then there was us, two kinds of us and millions of others; 4 legs, 3 layers of skin, 2 wings, 1 purpose... Praise

We can choose which tale to tell, but there will be one truth, we will always tell stories, so let's tell stories about us, about the names we answer to and the air we breath, stories about familiar smiles and family ties, lets tell stories with the words we know and the emotions we have felt. That's how we stay alive, if out stories don't die.
