Poem: A Happy Summary of Cosmos and Life

 

 

A Happy Summary of Cosmos and Life


flecks of little light

waft miserly in dark.

 

they hoard their silver

to ladle it thin,

 

which spurs hunger,

envy, riots, war …

 

such feeble gruel,

it nourishes weedy momuments:

 

parched proclamations

of praise and greatness,

 

while puny human lords

dress up as gods,

 

urgent of ego,

needy to master,

 

as starved and empty of truth

as pious vampires,

 

who never look up

at the abysmal night.

 

 

================================















Written as the world heads into fascism and greater likelihood of WW3 ... but, you know, it could have been written at any time during human civilization
