Joseph P. DiMino Poet Free verse

Flat Earthers

I think, Flat-earthers are abundant – 

those who prefer visible planes,

never taking that leap of faith
at horizons; who would rather
focus on rosy hues out from a radiant
center; seeing sun rising and setting,
oblivious to the fact that they very well 
are walking upside down in a weightless
universe...

I think, love can be like that~ walking upside
down in a weightless universe...death may also 
have an up-righting twist...the other side of a life-coin, 

that a computer generated society refuses to lift and
turn over – willing to rewrite any chance for future
reward, thinking some new program will negate the
old desktop with its often used icons linking with 
damnation.

But many Of us have spent time in that mode, once upon Arrgh ' Well you get my drift I guess ? have come To a realization, that true life will begin after we Leave this world.' Anyway yet we must not go Under our own hands, its Gods perrogative ' Joseph P. DiMino November 18, 2022 at 3:41 PM Hi Joe; for sure. This is only an illusion of life. We are hear because of sin.

Sally Eslinger November 15, 2022 at 9:03 PM Joe! I’ve wondered, what do Flat Earthers think sun & moon do aftergoing below the horizon to get ba,c over to the other side where they rise?get sucked across in an air Shute like at bank drive thrus?

Sara Kendrick November 15, 2022 at 4:03 AM Amazing how we can each draw a somewhat different line from this work. I told my husband here lately, after hearing him say something about being dizzy, isn't it amazing that the earth is spinning around, going around the sun, and all of the universe is moving through space, but we don't get dizzy, fall off, or something much worse. I enjoyed reading this one. Thanks for dropping by my page and leaving a a nice comment. Sara Joseph P. DiMino November 15, 2022 at 7:55 AM Thank you, Sara, for your wise, poignant comments. A lot people are not of aware, seeing the universe from their own little portholes. Blessings my friend.
