A Billion Billion Flowers

I wish I could give you a flower
One for every time I thought of you
Another for every time I loved you
And another for every time I wanted to kiss you
The problem is that I have loved you for so long
And loved you so strongly
The universe does not have that many flowers 
So just know that

Premium MemberA billion Dollar Soul

A billion can buy a bushel of silence 
hectares of prime farmland or flashy private jets 
It can buy a turd in stilettos and a pyrite hearted mistress.

A billion can buy you a secondhand spaceship
or an endless good run of wall street luck 
it can buy a bloated lip- plastic nips and butts.

With a billion

Premium MemberSmooth Caramel

You say you're not magic, but you conjur incredibly well
Thoughts of a wand forming happiness, a beautiful carousel
A ring that dispels loves hunger like a dinner bell
I choose to be drowned inside your pools of smooth caramel
May your sweetness be the last thing I ever see or smell
Damn the devil, YOU can have my soul;

8 Billion as 1

It’s a peculiar feeling, isn’t it? To be one of 8 billion. To surely be the one and only soul to have unique experiences, immersive suffering, triumphs—

Ha. 

A peculiar feeling to be sure, to be 

Completely
Unoriginal

In every conceivable way, to be one of infinite incarnations; swirling among a mass of consciousness, each entirely whole yet

Premium MemberSix Days Or Six Billion Years

Just six days was all it took God
to create the heavens and earth.
Most people dismiss this as odd,
just as they view the virgin birth.

Those who say God does not exist,
choose to believe the scientists.
Some try the Word of God to twist
by making a day an eon.

When the subject is origins,
one cannot trust the scientists.
Science provides

Premium MemberSeven Billion Dreams, One Planet, Consume With Care

We are depleting our planet little by little while taking what we need 
perhaps this is the time to give back to Mother Earth and plant a seed 
Imagine yourself in the forest picking chanterelles, like times of old
Wild animals running free, deer panting by the river with eyes of gold 
Take a deep breath

7 Billion Super Kill

7 billion super kill 
i wonder too about all this
my idle mind goes into overdrive
i think of the 7 billion humans 
the ruling elite may or may not kill off 
leaving just 500 million left alive
they don’t need our taxes
i was thinking 'sensibly' how they would do this? 
a virus is too iffy
nukes too destructive/radioactive

Premium Member8 Billion Wards of the States

All 8 billion of us
have mental illness
some 
subtly 
so
others profound
its a matter of degree
of shade..

some reach out - adapt
become chefs-CEOS- presidents
others curl inward
cannibalize themselves
crapping out 
psychopaths  
creeping about
raking fangs along 
our plump peace cloud... 

We've emptied asylums
population at critical mass
somebodies gonna crack
lay twisted neck upon the tracks
derailing society
plucking lives
off the vine
before 
they're
ripe

A Billion Light-Years in the Past
David J Walker
 
Star Light
Star bright
I look to you for the solution
Tonight
Are we the offspring of 
Single-cell
Are viruses invading us
In Sedulous successions
Does evolution drive intelligence 
Or does intelligence drive evolution
Star Light 
I wonder how far away you are tonight
with the solution
A billion light-years in the past?

Almost 8 Billion

We’re the electromagnetic spectrum;
Particles, waves, almost eight billion strong.
To coherent frequencies some belong,
some divided by color through prism.
Varying energies from low to high,
narrowly diffracted photons scatter.
Lacking mass, believing we don’t matter,
Invisible to the unaided eye.

Synchronized, polarized, amplified beams,
collimated waves propagating dreams,
refracted rays bend to reflected streams
We may choose to oscillate to and fro
by joining a

We drink five billion cups of coffee a year
An insane amount, it's becoming tragically clear
The forest clearing
Is affecting our sphere
Clear cutting to grow beans in South America

Premium MemberA Billion Ponds

A Billion Ponds
----------------

I came to the land of a billion ponds
where they said there would be (one day) a million more.
A billion ponds shimmered in sunsets;
lined up purposefully for my delight.

A billion birds or more perished on these ponds
and they made twilight unbearable for me,
these billion birds on the trillion million ponds.

So I went away
