\"Entropy is a measure of disorder and in our universe, everything tends to move from less disorder to more over time\". Seems these days we are on a collision course with it. Sadly my friend, you pegged it right. Don\'t know if there is an antidote for it.

indeed, nothing like Earth in our nearby Galaxies
despite it all, we\'re as good as it gets
in our universe neighbourhood
so we might as well, make the best
of it all..
\'Look for the bare necessities, the simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities, old mother nature\'s recipes
That bring the bare necessities of life\'

Brilliant work, dear cherished Poet
such a great reading experience:
\'Imprisoned in the primeval dark,
we search for a light, a verbal spark
At first we cry, a groan, a moan,
to let others know they\'re not alone\'
\'With a gasping, grasping, groping attempt,
to express hunger, love or contempt,
a shaping of noises is expressed
to spit out what\'s deep inside our chest\'
(crazy, we\'re both sharing work
as study of words/name
personalised etymologies
with a nod to our childhoods..)
lol

Please stop! Headache Impending!🙂. Great stuff though. I\'m going to mine a line (the topic expressed) every time I want a cause to poeticise. Now forward to the causes poem?
Such rich content.

The word “we” does not apply, that is an inaccurate supposition, maybe just say “I” and avoid dragging anybody else in this fictional world created only to support a false theory that those that “ vomit an unintelligible cacophony” require or deserve to solace of company. When you write something this bleak you should just burn it.

Yes - the proposition that you can\'t remember before you have language sounds completely dubious to me, Soren.
You cannot convey any of that or thoughts and feelings to others without words and the lack becomes frustrating in the extreme.
The struggle to become articulate is richly described in your poem.

Fire touches us in so many ways. You capture literally and figuretively the passions that burn for better or worse. Quite astounding!

deep themes, celebrating
legacy in poetry\'s, rich
philosophical heritage..
a wonderfully contemplative write
a thought provoking read, dear Poet
(Prometheus, abounds
freeing our ancestry from dependency
on cryptic, mythology
then comes, progressive modernity
adamantly striving
to reverse humanity\'s evolution
to a state
of collective, regressive
cognitive slavery
for fear of finite\'s inevitably
liberating, serendipity...)

Doggerel Dave said:
And to which I will eventually return.... different timespan, but same fate as the organic matter it has been enlisted to mark. In that role it is of no concern that same matter; as an image of the process it was quite vivid, Soren.

Bella Shepard said:
In my youth I sometimes thought of death as the infinite sleep, where I would simply fade off into a final dream. Now in my final years I sense the familiarity of your words and find the headstone only says that we existed, it cannont know who we were or what our dreams. Your Headstone speaks poignantly in wonderful imagery dear friend, and my privilege to read.

This is transcendental! You truly, as opposed to your poem\'s subject, SHINE with such bright, fervent radiance. The assonance in the words \"scattered, shattered\" are so haunting in the reader\'s mind. This is wonderful.

...imagining what sort of headstone shall mark the laying of my remains and what inscription shall be carved onto its surface knowing all well that the weathering and most probable vandalism would scour that down to a lump with no thoughts... your fine words brought my thoughts afar off, yet again!

Brilliant!
(\'Headstone
as our beginning, to that surreal
where, we\'ve always belonged\'
where existence\'s, poisonous
influences, can no longer
reach us, warp us, steal from us
that who
we so strived to be, once
when we looked upon a world
full of possibility\'s, light
and all our hurts, could be resolved
by a kiss or a hug
from a warmth, we never realised
will soon be taken from us
till someday, our physical bodies
devoid of breath
will match, that frozen heart
we\'ve been carrying all along
since Time, stopped becoming
our avenue to that scope
of better, we so naively
vehemently, believed
was awaiting
at that next, blind corner
or stumble
we crawled back up, from
one cruel cut of fate
at a Time...

Wonderful poem, and your third stanza is certainly one to contemplate and reflect upon. This piece gave me so much to think about, and touches on a question I ask my self daily, \"Who am I really, and what do I value?\" Thank you dear friend, your words are always inspiring and thought-filled.

Good write SB.
A daft tale - I gave someone a pack of cards. I said if the last card I choose in the pack is the Ace of Spades, you owe me £10 million.
He did not know they were ALL Ace of Spades! lol.
