Astro-naughts

Shaunmatthewcpoetry

Can a human being even leave this atmosphere?

Astro-naughts because it's all becoming clear. 

From the Moon landing to Katy Perry and friends, 

Deception seen through a dirty fisheye lens.

NASA airbrush, surfaces fake as George Bush,

Secret projects aren't revealed with any rush. 

Stargates and Saturn, stars on top of Hermon's mountain,

Patiently waiting for the lies to explode, pull the grenade pin.

    A poem that has many levels where we know the world to be flat and that man can never fly. All those so call flights from Miami to Brazil mere illusions hypnotized by 3-D imagery. A fun read

    Shaun, this is confrontational and deliberately unsettled. The wordplay, the pop culture jabs, the cosmic suspicion all stack toward that final threat of detonation. You’re not arguing a case so much as daring the reader to sit with the paranoia. It’s raw, restless, and committed to its stance. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

      Thank you, it is weird, like what if we can't go to space and it has all been deception? Frightening really.

        Well, the way I look at it...neither you or I have Katy Perry's purse, so...we're grounded here either way! 🤣🤷‍♂️

            Now everyone knows it was you and I that first landed on the Moon, way before 1969! lol.
