WORLD WITHIN WORLD

WORLD WITHIN WORLD At first glance, we are a single entity On our slowly spinning planet home Yet with a subtlety in such quantity As we look up to the starlit dome Are we more - or less, than one A missing tooth in a plastic comb Perhaps a final age has now begun Could it be a race we cannot win Or is it that what’s done is done As none of us is knight or paladin Is it now time for us all to reflect Now all that’s left is an ironic grin To study in depth, we must begin Discovering another world within

interesting rhyme scheme; I agree...the journey within is where we must begin. I especially liked "a missing tooth in a plastic comb." Brilliant! enjoy your evening, Sara

Very nice. The rhyme scheme is interesting and so is the subject matter. I like the line about the missing tooth and the one about knight or paladin.
