I played with a flashlight one night; intriguing little black box, Man’s design. So easy — flip a switch and its beam travels to the stars followed by my own inquisitive gaze — And there we were, parallel beams of fragile existence, searching the depths of space for answers — In time the intensity of its light slowly turned dimmer, then dimmer yet — till its filament of life grew cold — I remain, for now, still searching...wondering... who holds my switch — CG |

CG An intriguing poem....thinking here that the closest place to buy batteries, holds the switch...and maybe you should get some extras...then you'll hold the switch for a longer time.  |
