Sounds In the Sky

The sun melts the milky way Sending balloons shaped Like electric eels While dinosaurs cry rivers That flow through the eyes and ears Of every living insult Filling sanctuaries For smiling souls Frozen in laughter As false god's of mercy Tremble in canyons Shimmering with gold The days are upon us When all shall see Reflections of our past Chasing echo's from Bellowing Planets Shattering Our existence 09/22/23 5:45 am

A depth well perceived, James. The riddled epoch idles our existence naturally lest meddlers befouls its pace. Aloha, William

According to science our life span is but a blink in time. By that time we will be the ailiens we look for.

This may well be such an epoch Jimbo.? Everything is charged, there are such claims Of ideaology of holding the high ground yet Terrible atrocitys are done in the same breath.' Well put scenarios here.'

Woah, this is a very deep and heartfelt write, especially that ending line "shattering our existence" is really impactful and does say it all! " Tremble in canyons Shimmering with gold", "The days are upon us When all shall see Reflections of our past" Your wordplay is really exquisite and thought-provoking.. A brilliant poem, loved reading this.
