The Dark Star

the dark star
the dogon saw the creation of the world
from a dark hole 

up their above the sky it dwells so dark 

how could they have come about 
this unknown knowledge

the strangers wonder in their search
of existence

I wonder how strange we are 

cos our history is a lie in their books 

I sometimes wish it speaks the truth 

when we fail to write it ourselves

yet we can never be ruled out 
from the beginning of humans first existence

our visibility is their mystery

that is why nature don't lie
