Independence
Independence is whether we push
the first domino
or not,
and then we watch what happens,
as either choice plays out.
We are given the first decision
in any case,
but as our choices affect us,
we cannot change anything,
for fallen toys cannot immediately be picked up,
and in the end,
it is our fault for choosing to push
or not choosing to.
Independence is responsibility
with either an amazing award,
or a harsh punishment.
So aliens,
choose wisely.
