Amidst the passage of time
Is relative in scope
Like a shadow's danger sign.

Boosting a signal
In the anticipation of
Light
Marks a change that announces
A new sky
In your night.

Boosting our knowledge
From where there's no
Sight
Is a found knowledge blade
And a time piercing
Knife.

encircling bands
of hourglass sands
engage their own way
turning orange into grey
by never speaking
and never giving
demands.

super-rotating bands
of ghost Titan hands
are commands from far away
an old interstellar display
of the weakness
of an omnipresent
reprimand.

the strangest image
I've ever not seen
shakes beauty awake
and new thoughts in my dream.

the strangest wisdom
that I'd never mean
is learned by mistake
from what's unsightly seen.

the strangest moment
thats forever not been
is a moment untold
a nonelightened daydream.

I would like to see
A flying saucer
Sometime before
I die.

I'd like to uncover
The truth within
And the alien answer
To why.

The inflationary era
Of the early universe
In a small, hot, quantum state
Is incredibly perverse.

The so-called vacuum energy
Of a quantum field traverse
Will quickly change into a seething soup
In an elementary particle reverse.

A timeless image of

Sons of a strange God
and the daughters of men
choose not what they see
and never not what is when.

Giants unto the earth
from the beginning, then
are the Sons that emerge
from the strange daughters of men.

Of a comets knowing whys
Produces catastrophic outcomes
With cataclysmic ties.
