Nature is neither
Quiet nor forlorn
Waves wrestle breaks
Plummet to shores
Skylight barely
Twinkles away
Eons burning
Blasting space
If peace resists
To dwell within
Cradle cries
Foes grin
Let rip and tear
Of sea, sky and earth
Remind you whence
Flesh from birth
We are planetary beings
You, a large gas giant
Me, one of many
Moons in orbit
Holding all force
Against gravity
Between us
Or else be plunged
Into a remote desert
A mere scar upon
Your landscape
Slow disappearing
Shifting sands of time
No home to call
Mine
It used to upset me
A lot
The idea of you talking
About me or not
But now I just wish on
The planetary forces
Some day you'll come to
Agree that maybe
The unspoken words
Are calling out loud
Every time you meet
Me or not
Earthy tunes
Still ringing in my
Burning ears
Poetry
A kind of torture
By Vogons
Count the stars of heaven
