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
