Desert Dweller

I am Siddhartha and Hannibal.

The human body
is composed of vastly more atoms
than the total number of humans
who ever lived.

I am Jesus Christ and Adolf Hitler

Atoms constantly recycle and recombine
therefore, it is a statistical certainty
that I am made of atoms that were once
Tricky Dick and Dr. King.

I am Mother Teresa and Lee Harvey Oswald,

I’m grateful Trump is alive because
that means
I am not him.

I am Schweitzer and Ghandi.
