Poem -

ALL the STARS are a LIE

Pointless shouts out loud
tonight...
Lethargic wisps of cold dead
air
The stars are a lie ...did you
know?
Their light, just leftovers
A left over glow...

Life...Β  just a contradiction of
death
Infinity smiles...takes what is
left
Happy to bestow
A momentsΒ rebellion
On the pointless child called
Breath

"The stars are a lie" -- think I know in the sense that lights we see were emitted sometime ago -- this is science ;-)>

As for metaphor only you know ... :))

I really enjoyed this piece Marion.

I watch a lot of documentaries on the cosmos and the light from the oldest further away stars takes so long to get here that they may no longer exist. You obviously know this already.

A very enjoyable read - Syd xoΒ
