The Falling Out
I find the ceiling fan
quite interesting – a whirling
meditation; -- blades
whiz! – air cooling unseen
yet felt
apparently
all affecting not overtly visible
how one’s heart reacts to currents
oblivious to detached others --
when we had our falling out
a great storm rocked worlds
no mention by the local meteorologist
nor cosmologist
seismologist
or an especial priest --
What’s one more or less, our universe~
to the greater emotional theme?
I wanted to buy the star
Andromeda from cosmologist
Fred Hoyle for my
dead sweetie Iris.
To build her in lab for
short childhood, lasting youth
To teach her love will touch softly
for pain will pinch her.
I invoke you to rise
delay your departure
to shine on her as you find
guide this pilgrim to her.

**I taught A for Andromeda, a one-act play in late sixties. The Milky Way's nearest neighbor in space is the spiral galaxy, Andromeda. It was first seen by a telescope in 1612 by Simon Marius. It was first seen by the naked eye in 1964 by a Persian astronomer, Abd Al-Rahman Al Sufi. Andromeda. She is biologically built in a lab with very short childhood
within few months she is in her youth. She lacked one thing. She had not feelings. One has got teach her what is pain pleasure, hate etc. etc.
there was a tree rose
piercing me and killing me, I thought
it was cheating on me after the sunset
when moon was walking alone
you know what is love
we think different things at the same time
but we are always alone, you do not think,
I think about my god, saying a prayer
to unknow him or keep him alive
he has a debt to pay me back because
I created him what cosmologist would
say was an accident
somebody comes with a strange version
I say, a transgender was also entitled
for his or hers right to love, may be
marrying a deity one day and have free sex
what were you saying about the bait, now
a hapless buffalo will be tied with a rope
put up on a rough terrain to invite the
lion to pounce and make a kill for the benefit of visitors
I am perplexed, do not want to talk,
will watch the moon again, sailing
silently across the blue starry sky
throwing the shadow of dew on my eyes.
SATISH VERMA
The Nebra Disc.....
tool of antiquity,for them then
not so ancient reality.....
As above,so below
to fall,to recieve
Cup shaped vessel
recieve messages celestial
on the outer edge,left to right
images of darkness and light
from chaos to order,heavenly sight
Shamanist or cosmologist
destined order should be humanist
animalistic we continue
as we struggle to evolve,altruistic....
