Like a bird on the wire,
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free. ...Leornard Cohen
......................................................................................
As I mull on the complexities of being and not being
a gamma ray burst signals another super nova arriving unexpectedly
perhaps with long term implications for our solar system
do you realise there are countless other inhabited planets out there
or have you been duped into thinking you are all alone
you are in one dimension, I am in another
look around you now fellow traveller, and you will see it is true
life is but a dream, but a very clever and disingenuous one
we are all but spirit players in the deck of cards
being shuffled and moved around at will
symbolical and allegorical tales still to be told
you can't remove one without disturbing the rest
significant ripples that pour into a still pond
affecting the glacier like surface of the subconcious
who told you, you can't love more than one person
it is a fallacy to think you can only affect the singular
spread yourself thickly wherever you go
you short change yourself and the world by being insular and mean
inter stellar pulses emitted from deep space
intermittent intimations transmitted just to you
you have to alter your perceptive frequency if you want to receive
what you give into your environment is what you get back
and look out, because we are on the eve of destruction
we have crossed the irrevocable line in the sand long time ago
I re-adjust my personal bearings, and head back to Mars
the red planet is my place of home and reflection
and if you are of a like minded disposition
come and join me on Olympus Mons
and we shall breakfast and be merry
introducing the new rules of the ever changing game
you and I can make a new and exciting reality
if you believe in me, like I do you

Name the date and the time, Sage Astronaut, and I will try to make it, but my spaceship is probably not half as grand as yours.
(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in America, Karen Lynn in Texas. :D
That pic is absolutely GORGEOUS, and so is this write. A stunning conclusion, a great way to begin my day. Thank you! Saving this, as I have the last two. Stellar poetry, my friend--BRAVO!
