Short Nanosecond Poems

When I installed you to my life, 
My heart went packed of love, 
Like a ROM in full memory .
I was initialized and formatted,
Yet you remained saved.
Just a nanosecond, 
I became your cursor 
And you were my mouse....

When my love turned into hate
I couldn't forget
The stare
The smile
The touch
Cause I loved her so very much
Then my love's dead body
Was burnt into ashes like a phoenix

Now I am waiting every nanosecond
For the birth of a sweet new love...

Crawling to each nanosecond
A descent calling to teach me
Another Plato lesson
Lessening the agony as for
Before what was aforementioned 
Fragments of talents calcified
And classified as otherworldly 
Unbelievable and that which walks
With Giants along the wastelands
Unwelcomed.........

All for one and one for all
The spread of cultured hands suffices
Like manna in the wilderness
No one is cloaked in greediness
The rising up of voices unheard
Like dust molded to life renewed
Who knew of particles power?
The nanosecond of changes
Like an idea whose time has come,
One for all and all for one.

The gravitational waves
Of massive spacial events
Hum across this vast universe,
Warping the space and time
Between us.

As black holes engulf black holes
And galaxies are born
Then die,
We in a nanosecond of time
Discover one another.

I AM LOST          
          
     Once void, all around emptiness where in vacuum Big Bang exploded.
     Vibrant Cosmos created in nanosecond, space and time started journey.
      Trivial ordinary star Sun, tiny Earth, trifling human race: Where am I?

A bouquet of blossoms
The calmness in the forest
I felt his one eye willy against my ribs
In a nanosecond, he became a minute man
Was this a midwinter dream?
I smile and then I kiss his neck,
he whispers, honey,
I hope that you are not upset,
Darn!  I was so ashamed of this
One minute man,
Viagra is all I can truly say to him
Old men, old men

The bells and whistles went off 
Announcing the "three question end of the game show" round.
The opportunity for the losing person to maybe catch up.
Just give me a picasecond please the studio host said
Is that less than a millisecond? the contender asked.
Oh, yes, even less than a microsecond, replied the host.
And a nanosecond? 
Yes. Two questions gone. What is your final question?...

Walking the line… as dancers in life
Stepping gingerly avoiding strife 
Step by step not looking left or right up or down
Eyes fixed upon living life’s line -- 
Played out by Klotho—
Measured by Lachesis
In a nanosecond a fatal slip, 
Causes an unexpected trip
Atropos’ final snip--
Fragile system malfunction
Resulting in extreme unction.
I as you, play my part
As we on Charon’s craft depart....

a degree and he knows it all
summarizes me in a nanosecond
has me all figured out

simplified into a likely story
for someone else perhaps
but no sir, not for me

casually randomizing
careless comments tossed
into a common salad

the maestro takes words
and plays them back askew
creating his own new melody

with all his pomp and arrogance
he is the type that gives
the profession a bad name
