I wanted to live but first I wanted to learn. I put my eye to the telescope and examined what was before me. Layers of tiny creatures flitting this way and that.
There. Then gone in a flash. Only to be replaced by another.
My eye got stuck open like that nursing the exterior of that metallic telescope that I had had ever since I can remember counting.
So I remained as I had always been, watching the life-form, seeing all that for me was ungraspable. For I never could close my eyes. My concentration was that focused.
