Just stand a little further back: you’ll see
That a city, country, continent
Is not a place, but an event
But I’m not here to talk geology.
Don’t stop there, you must go further still;
That event once more becomes a place,
As dimensions twist and merge until
Time’s exposed as one degree of space
Concealing the more permanent condition:
Your body; just a transient partition
From collective will; the cosmic mind
Shared by every being of your kind

Now at last intuiting your immortal soul, 
Know how best to maximise profits for the shareholder
