Cosmic Heart
COSMIC HEART
There once were places in this world where you could escape
but now the whole globe is wrapped with investigation tape.
So when I want to get away and leave this mess behind
I find myself diving out the back door of my mind.
I’ve jumped onto Orion’s belt, and did some giant swings
and slid down the back of Scorpio without a single sting.
I’ve learned to shuffle galaxies like they are decks of cards
and play roulette with asteroids with total disregard.
I’ve ridden comets like they’re skateboards and bowled with satellites
wearing suits of stardust and ties of ultra violet light.
I once jumped into a wormhole, wound up behind my mind
reading all the thoughts I’d think in some future time.
I’ve joined cavalcades of stars in the universe of laughs
and swirled in seas of jokes till eternities had passed
One day I’ll set an orbit around the cosmic heart
bound there by the force of love, never to depart.
