Hell In the Stars

Hell in The Stars Befool yourself into believing In words And fool yourself into thinking You’ve heard “the” word All of our knowledge Is designed by human hands Look a little deeper Look out towards the stars We are planet bound The same as a plant inside its pot Still we know the galaxies are there Just like a pot plant comprehends Its nature is to live In a field It is the demonstration of arrogance to believe That we have the answers to everything The greatest mystery Is how all this came to be Yet you define it with your books You even think that in your words You can capture what it is That breathes Eternally What are the stars to you except imagery What are they to you but romance What are they to you Other than a figment of your imagination What do they represent Nothing more Than your Denial What do we wake up to be This planet and our own mediocrity Or do we wake up To feel all the suns which we call stars And the entire expanse of creation Witnessed In our eyes Do we understand that Hell Is as much an aspect Of heaven As is everything else A planetary definition made by limits Does not define Reality And I know; being challenged you will turn to your books of faith. I know you will turn to each other, for support. You will look towards the comfort of an easy excuse. A human explanation of what humanity can’t explain, you will turn away from the evident proof of your eyes, yet again. You will choose to deny the stars and every portent they contain and instead; look towards a heaven which simpleton faithlings say belief cannot resist. While creation happens all around you you will choose not to exist Give it another Prophet and another thousand years For your stupidity To stop up your eyes and your ears
