It's very, very cold and very, very dark.
Slow breaths of Pluto's bark are coming in,
Barking to alert Earthlings of imminent change,
Signs of a paradigm shift now,
Things are beginning to feel strange.
It's happening now, right now, believe it or not.
One should be prudent to make sure their work is not slipshod.
So buckle your seat belt and get ready.
It's moving slowly, but it's coming in steadily.
Whether you're ready or not,
It's happening right now for the unlearned and the taught.
Light of Transcendence
From the Light of the Teacher
A peculiar transit
Moving into Aquarius, where it will sit for a while,
Pluto is transforming life on Earth in an innovative, unpredictable style.
When I was younger, Pluto was my favorite planet
I cried the day it was demoted
I realized that I rooted so heavily I for the little guy, the underdog
Because I was just like that little planet
And I thought if I can root for that little planet
Someone would see me, and root for me too
I’ve accepted that things don’t work out the way I always plan them to
But I always feel a moment away from falling behind and become a dwarf planet, demoted.
I still look up and hope that Pluto roots for me, just like I still root for him
I wouldn't like to live on Pluto
though you gave me a box full of gin,
a thousand woolly blankets
and loads of oxygen.
I wouldn't like Mercury either
for there I'd freeze or bake.
And where on Mars or Venus
is there beer, for Heaven's sake?
I have to accept I'm an earthling,
where I may have to suffer a lot.
Happiness lies in contentment
asking little more than what you have got.
As I die no one holds my hand
I leave
As I die no one stands by
I sleep
As I die no one comes near
I wait
In the corner are hush hush whisperers
I listen
In the corner are angled faces
I speak
In the corner are doorways hidden
I watch
On the ground my body feels chained
I sink
On the ground my body feels heavy
I drown
On the ground my body feels pain
I writhe
While I burn in silence, time is quiet
I hide
While I burn in silence, time creeps by
I shrink
While I burn in silence, time stands waiting
I fade
From the ashes I will renew this life
I climb
From the ashes I will not be caged
I fly
From the ashes I will find the wind again
I rise
They said that some men had the callings of planets,
Stationary compared to mortals,
Abstinent and moral,
That the energy they were given to live,
Attracted others like a Sun would give,
That they were gods amongst men third person,
Always asking men to ascend,
Man didn't know that that calling was from earth,
When the people need to change they are brought to make work,
That means God on earth that needs respect,
If the people try as equals the problems are what we neglect.
Osiris came before the people and said,
Just go away and leave me with my bread,
So it was said but the people didn't know,
Some people like to connect but he said go,
That means no speech no annoying not at all,
And death fell on the people too close to be a call,
When Osiris gave birth to the ideas of man,
He said never enter my head as the dead he had command,
Do not try me with such a big heart,
It shall be weighed against my efforts to be above what you do,
From the very start,
The man that was an island.
Pluto made a dwarf
not for being far too small
precinct too cluttered

Pluto
Plain as e'er, my founder's pewt'rish *heart region face Charon, echo coins gauge cross
Logging midway regions *Cthulhu, less tale more Pequodish, ruddy looks Melville errs
Union empowered eastern half wanes while western regions honorarium *Sputnik lord
The tail-end of Moby and thumper's regions is equatorial *Brass Knuckles ebony mask
Obfuscated, renamed hints an immortalized fiction, a dwarf, a tease, tho I'd be if was
*The four major regions of Pluto

Pluto, tell me, why do you cry
Let your tears dampen and dry
Unless you fail the final quest
They will seem to be the best
Oh Pluto, they'll respect you in the end
Pluto a small planet-outermost part of the solar system
Learning about Pluto as a child was so much fun U will always be my favorite planet
Today many say Pluto is not a planet
Oh Pluto you are a heavenly body revolving about the sun

Powerful professionals, the IAU,* said you didn’t measure up and
Labeled you a “dwarf planet” in 2006,
Upsetting the long-established belief in nine planets.
Tried and true supporters, many of them experts,**
Object to this demotion and declare you still a planet!

Planet? Nope.
Little
underdog
that lurks
on the edge of the Milky Way.
“Planet” of the distant
past, now considered too
petite for the title.
Pray, don’t you despair now.
Pirouette though pitch void,
pretty as always, for
perhaps our minds will change.

I was discovered by the Pluto Search Team in 2005
My large red impact crater showing them I am semi-alive.
I have since discovered it was June fifteenth by earth years
My image got uploaded by New Horizons, one of my fears
They named me Nix, after a Greek Goddess of the Night.
I have no qualms about this, shall stir up no argument or fight.
I am one of five moons, smack in the middle, orbiting Pluto.
Charon, Styx, Kerberos and Hydra are the others I know.
Some say I am thirty miles across, others say it is forty.
I am elongated, for a moon, I am certainly no shorty.
I was surprised to see Earthlings had advanced this far.
I did not think at this time they would reach even one star.
the puppy
like the worlds
runs in circles
she’s cute,
that puppy
I think i’ll name her
Pluto.
Donald Trump is an old Plutocrat
Living high on the hog like a gnat
But Disney was first
To notify Hearst
That Pluto's a dog, not a rat!
