Multiverse

Distant jewels of night inthrall my eye.
A timeless question forms upon my mind.
Universe. Compared to you, what am I?
Inside I feel alien to my own kind...

With their fruitless efforts to quantify-
eternity and shape reality.
They place limits on an unruly sky-
a witless display of totality.  

Stranger than fiction; that which is scope-less.
As if the eye of the mind were sublime.
Depictions of fire; but yet smokeless.
Stars ablaze, make relevant space and time. 

To you, I’m a cosmic ghost in this shell.
We’re one and the same, no matter the veil.
