The Milky Way

the milky Way As the moon waxed gibbous over imitating ponds and lakes, the night sky’s pearly necklace, of milk which no thirst will slake - draws a line of human history - intrigue leading to discovery, a depth to be plumbed, as the human mind pondered and thought – deduced! and as science brought the stars so near - to be seen and studied and mapped, the human mind lost focus here on a vague randomness, adapt how sad, the mind of humankind; a mind with so much potential! how sad that the clearer it sees the more it loses perspective!
