A pretty bright blue marble Nestled in nothing space Swirled clouds floating On the unscarred surface A great brown-burnt country Luscious curves of land Or flat and hard, so harsh Barely spoiled by man A spreadeagled, bustling city Smoky towers and car-ants Hurrying to and fro and to Loud noises- CRASH! BANG! BAM! A house in bumbling concrete burbs Bickering family and little joys Friction, love, dillemmas Crackling TV and careless voices But from a distance we are beautiful A speck on a fleck on a grain on a Simple blue nothing. ~What if you slept? What if, in your sleep, you dreamed? And in your dream, you went to heaven and there plucked a strange and beautiful flower? And what if, when you awoke, you had that flower in your hand? Aye, what then?~ |
