Insignificant

Staring at the Universe a speck of decaying dust, roaming like restless rust A sovereign statue underrated & unjust, searching solitudes of trust With a mirage of mirrors in my view, steering my soul to scantly skew Meticulously moving quizzically on cue, banished beneath the blue We are Nomads of the rising Sun, surviving the fields of oblivion as one First, we crawl, walk then run…exiting the earth when we are done We are but a tear in the oceans of time, drowning in a downhill climb A speck of lamented light or sublime, a phantom peripheral pantomime Dormant death encroaches with remorse, only to silence and enforce Invader of dreams like a Trojan-Horse, never deviating from its course Stay awake from this slaving sleep, taking away your breath with a sweep Does the lion lie with the sheep, when we cross the abyss of the deep?
