cosmology

the

cosmos

banged its head and

now cannot recall its youth

it had to make cosmologists

to try to find the

truth

untitled VI

on and on I walk

pursuing the dream to cast

a real shadow

proliferate

if this is all

a simulation

just a game

an animation

then perhaps

at our demise

game over

blinks inside

our eyes

and only then

we realize

our progeny

are extra guys

Astral Nastalgia

cruising down the roads

at night

listening to elton john

singing about

a rocketman

i guess those days

are gone

Daisy and Wild Rose

A daisy and a wild rose

Were growing, side by side,

But which was more significant,

They couldn’t quite decide.

Said Wild Rose to Daisy,

“You’re tall and so alive,

You’re petals are so bountiful,

While I have only five.”

“But you’re the symbol of true love,

And me, just righteousness,

And you’re a lovely shade of pink

While I am colorless.”

Well, if you wonder if you’re loved,

Only the daisy knows,

But if you wonder what love is,

A rose is a rose is a rose.

as one

a new morning breaks

the clouds are undone

the spirit awakes

the flight has begun

the dark of night ending

we all are as one

ascending and blending

into the sun

untitled V

when the parade comes

bulging buttocks are pried loose

from concave couches

In Character

when I see myself

as a character in a book

a wonderful transition

takes place

life’s up and downs

are only little twists

in the plot to keep

the book entertaining

moreover

I would buy this book

an alien vibe

seeping into our world here

betrays the portal

Universe 13

At nearly seven miles long

And half a mile wide,

The freighter cleared

The loading dock,

Her escort at her side.

Departing from the Ceres Mine,

She eased into the stars

With another load of iron

For a steel mill on Mars.

Now as she left The Belt,

A rift in space began to form–

“Great Ganymede!”

The captain cried,

“We’re heading for a storm!”

The freighter soon was torn apart,

And ne’er again was seen,

And that’s the way

that things went down

In Universe 13.
