basking in this ancient light
witnessing with infant eyes
the prime of a planet
the fate of some cancered sun

as we blot out the moon
we gash open the past
roaming on cosmic lanterns beings stare at another,
at a space and time unknown

to know this is to know yourself as an intelligent being
to see this is to see the universe as god

Why does the word "god" spur preconceived imagery? Automatically there is an assumption on what is being referenced. God is indefintely undefined in my mind, everchanging with my mood, needs, and imagination; an idea or concept so heavy, like god, should be personal on every level at all times. This understanding and acceptance of eachother's relationship with whatever god is, to us, should be the focus of praise and silence.
