You never can worry enough
What worries me nowhere as scary
As the amazing things I don’t think about
Stuff that should make me terrified
It’s logical to worry all the time because
Anything does happen
Worrying lets you see what others can’t:
How everything can go wrong
Like what’s happening now
Worry expands your sense of the possible
If bad things don’t happen, you might feel happy
Yet if one’s happy you shouldn’t worry
Which I think means you should worry a lot
For all happiness is fleeting
And if you don’t worry about what ends happiness
You might never feel happy
Then you might think, what’s the point?
Not worrying about health can leave you ill
Yet worrying too much can make you sick
So you need to worry just the right amount
I’ m not sure I’ll ever get it right
My friend says he’ll never worry
Only if an asteroid strikes the Earth
Which makes me worry about him
What if the asteroid doesn’t come?
