Poem Reference

The sky is high, endlessly high.

The earth is deep, limitlessly deep.

We living creatures exist between the two,

relying on their transformative powers.

We fight one another for food and warmth

and calculate how to eat each other up.

We don't yet fully grasp cause and effect,

blind people asking, 'What's the color of milk?'
