Poem: Looking Back

 

Looking Back

 

the light

would’ve been dark in another room.

photons milled on walls,

pawns bumping pawns,

in a struggle of grey upon grey.

 

zooming out,

this was just another cell

of a planet in a district on a continent.

beyond that, a slapdash galaxy, 

dark of matter and cosmos.

 

anything human served as a morsel

for the Gargantua that was outer space.

 

it all interconnected, if only in one head,

what came out, in broken vomits,

drawn from a flawed moebius engine

that lost spokes within spokes of

wheels within wheels.


so it was:

 

this lonely universe

had taken a long time to craft its little beings,

the sort who could be forced to ponder

how tragic and magnificent

the will to spawn dramatically was.
