Will I have time ?

Lorenz

I wouldn't  have time to visit this vast universe

which  fits in a galactic nest .

Roaming the dusty oceans of  moonlight ,

the red windswept  plains of  mars 

and saturn's rings that chill  suffering  souls ...

I wouldn't have time to go looking 

for the taste of this burning  solar honey ...

Flying  beyond  pluto ,

admirable and free photon 

dancing in the light of  a capricious galaxy  

with the look of a newfound  love ...

Drink  from the icy fountain of imortality,

get in touch with the music of the spheres

this melody of stars and  desasters ...

Sidereal voyager relieved  of Prometheus' torment

At the orchard of gods ,biting the sacred fruit 

without  fear  of malefice...

I'm  this elegant  proton  ,

Inspired walker  in the shape of emptiness

beyond  the echo of so many silence ,

will I have time in this  dimension

of a scattered  deck of  cards 

where  hours are but the children of chance ?

    This poem is filled with so many metaphors and solar images that intermingle in their meanings. A lovely write

    • Lorenz

      a vast universe beyond the rabbit hole ...

    • Ellen Marsell

      This poem is like a journey beyond space and time, but it remains deeply human in its essence. The philosophical echoes are very strong.

      • Lorenz

        Cosmic intoxication and metaphysical vertigo !

            Great write.
            Thank heavens this universe is too vast for folks in tourist mode to visit all of it!

            • Lorenz

              Let's visit it in spirit mode !

              • Mutley Ravishes

                For sure. That will definitely stop places from ever becoming overcrowded!

              • Dan Williams

                Not enough time, sure, but don't let that stop you from trying. We are part of the universe after all, eh? Good work here.

                • Lorenz

                  We're all made of star dust ..
