Seeking a parallel in quietus
from the smoking fields of nebulae
where I could see all there is,

while reality floats,
its distance doubling with the
passing of each second.

To discover there are no grasslands,
that there never was a serenity
and how lonely I am for that.

Only the tundra of planets
with equators untouched
by their inner engines

in an existence unchanged through
the fish-eye lens of light years with
tilted skull caps lined up like dominoes.

I love this poem. Honestly I do!

What I love most about this poem is that... vicarious indifference portrayed in the sadness of stanza three and four. Its as if the person doesn't belong here at all... as if their alien, and because of this alien presence they are only going to inevitably bleach upon what makes this world so worthwhile...

A light shining out upon empty space, where everything is as completely overwhelmed in a vacuum, as it is complete absolution and freedom put in such... a state as space (with repeated ripplings of history).

A beautiful poem... a very beautiful poem worth reading, and worth contemplating over. Bravo!
