STILL WE WAIT

https://poetsandstorytellersunited.blogspot.com/s


one never knows

2 never knows

3 never knows

yesterday never knows

today never knows
Tomorrow Never Knows

still we wait

in rapt anticipation
for Arecibo to pick up a clue
something to bring us together
and show we are more than the
savage apes in a Kubrick odyssey

best thing for this roiling ball in space

would be to confront
a common enemy

War of the Worlds

now playing
right outside your kitchen window
your petty partisan bickering
wouldn't matter much then

Nancy and Mitch

Rush (to judgement)
Sister Susie
Phil and Don
and on and on

but they want no part of us

and our cancerous encroachment
upon all that is sacred

would you?


somewhere The Creator

emits a big booming laugh

he knows that he's just getting started 


stay tuned

  2. Your conclusion is open to interpretation! At a recent poetry reading one reader postulated a bored God who stirred up recent disasters because of wanting 'a bit of stimulation'. Your amused Deity might, however, be just getting started on improving our lot.

    1. It is my firm belief that all of this was designed in a way to engender copious amounts of drama. So I would go along with your poetry reader on that. We all need stimulation--even at the highest levels! If it all works out in the end, perhaps we can say it was worth it.

  3. That Arecibo must be way off its track or maybe they got it backward with 23 rows and 73 columns? In any event we are f***ked.
