Everything Gathers

Intransitive use of the verb:

all comes together.

All, one might even say, is One—

a concept easy enough to parrot or even to parody

(make me one with everything, Mr. Hot Dog Man)

but not so easy to absorb into our being.

Not so easy, apparently, to comprehend,

embody,

or adopt as the basis of our actions.

 

Transitively, then.

Everything gathers an object.

Dust?

Moss (rolling stones gather none)?

A crowd?

Well, dust is my best guess.

We are dust and will return to it.

Thus,

everything gathers dust.

The universal substance,

and we are all it, gathered together.

One.
