Many nights, I'd lay down on Mother Earth, staring at the clear sky and millions of stars... wondering, who in this world was staring at the same star... who had the same thoughts, the same dreams... excellent, as always...
I find these verses enthralling, uplifting and energizing; all towards an everlasting voyage. Thank you for sharing this offering, Jude. Love and peace to you. Regis
Stars are the most amazing things; sometimes so faint and distant, coldly reminding us that the universe may be dying; then, at other times so close and pulsating with energy it IS almost as if they are inviting us to burst through the terrestrial existance and expand into a state of being that is ad infinitum. A clear night under the full moon next to the ocean would, I imagine, provoke the latter response and release the energy contained (just!!) in this "birthing" write. A real Easter kind of regeneration is here, born of the phrase which I seem to keep bandying about: "passion in extremis". WTG, Jude. When the "seers" begin to move into the reality of the visions that they have only previous witnessed coming from a long way off, it brings the world into a whole new phase of existance, the dream becoming real.

I dare proposing the intuition that those vast worlds ahead are an intrinsic part of the rebel of idea. Otherwise, he would not be the embryo evolving within even all (apparent) final moments of a living poem.

Robert--lovely pondering write here.
"Dare I surrender to the act
Of becoming more than a mere player of words?"
You will always be more than a mere player of words. You are a master.
Ahhhhh we have yet places to go that no man has ever ventured and the words of the poets may well be the starship of the future. Great pen to paper my friend.
Yes, we are ultimately puny beings in one universe among possibly multiple universes. The world is turning according to a timetable within a larger sphere we may not have knowledge of. And those stars that have fired for billions of years that are a million light years away still shine. What I appreciate about you Jude, is your larger view of the world and the future. History shows that at every turn of the century, doomsday visions proliferate. We seem to share the view(please correct me if I'm wrong)that violent change, or "unraveling" as you put it--is necessary for new systems that serve mankind to take their place. This does not mean total annilation of a species. "Its the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine..." You have this optimism and offer hope. God bless rebels...
If you question the stars you are questioning the home you have lived in for all the years I know you. A celestial write befitting one who travels the galaxies!
We can strive to make a difference and become as a star in the universe or we can believe that we are just a spark and dwindle from view as quickly as we arrived. We are a part of the massive energy that surrounds all things. We can choose to understand it and consume it or we can allow it to consume us. Choice and responsibility for obtaining all that we dream is completely up to each of us. Excellent write, Robert, another one of yours for my library.

You gotta live your dreams, or they ain't worth having.
And with your final breath you'll say "ahhhhhh..."
