Poem Title:
Poem
Journey To The Calm People populated in the millions, then came billions A collective sound pounds in the head relentlessly The ruckus became too much As lands filled up with every kind of thing There, waiting for trumpets to awaken the transformation To answer questions never posed Sun turned up to circulate the news about the truth Moon too gave way to rotate around this matter That; empty space is inherently cold, void and without voice From it, science and technology burst forth Matter inevitably takes its course Building on the forces of the past, a matter of creation There came complexities to make us whole Thousands of machines with noises whirring loud Cogs and gears whipped into a frenzied speed Turmoil followed developments departure Gravity became the enemy, could not hold on, to either side The Plenum filled in the emptiness, a cacophony of noise All things from atoms to large particles delighted To occupy the holes that once were empty As more things arrive, with void subsiding, at rapid pace Then, in a sudden change in growth Objects and machines decreased in numbers in the realm Declined, abated, subtracted on a dime The noise was deafening as the emptiness set in Then! Just as it had started, it all came to an end The air turned still and solid from surrounding boundaries To collectively gather back from where it came Follow nature quietly into a silent grave To fill in what was forgot and what was not Every day new energy had evolved at a rapid pace Filled in the empty parts of space Trillions turned into billions, into hundreds, into tens and then no more People went away as well Not one person left upon a throne or chair To stare out to the wonderment once there Now the sound of meditation cannot be heard Not one single syllable or word Utter silence appears in great abundance And with it more emptiness abounds… evolving into calm
