Specks of dust

Consider a grain of sand
And you have eternities 
In the palm of your hand.
Consider wind 
And you have the ever 
Expanding interstellar void
Whirl by your ears.
Consider our lives
And we have an ephemeral spark
Which is truly our realm
For we are nothing more
In the cosmos scheme
Than specks of dust.
Consider the reasons 
We are putting ourselves
In the centre of the universe
For we certainly make a lot of ruckus 
For such aleatory beings.
Is it not simply 
To disprove the unimportance
Of our feverish transience?
