Archimedes Fish
Archimedes
To whom mathematics seemed a breeze.
Had fish needing an aquarium.
But he invented a planetarium.

…And so he asks ‘do you see that distant star?
Its beauty is in the darkness.’
…And I answer: thanks to the star I know what darkness is.
Where is my star?
Can I find it amidst every twinkling dot there is?
Yes, if I would only remember
I am not a planetarium viewer.
I have the day planned.
A picnic. The planetarium. Meeting friends for dinner.
The phone rings.
Bam!
Death in the family
Plans mean nothing now
The unplanned has taken over
The unplanned has changed my emotions
And ruined the day
Death
The unexpected
Visitor
We never want to see
Who tweets toxic thoughts like a pump
And has shown that we are his sump?
The zone he has sewn
This chump dump he must own
Ain't Earth—it’s his clone—planet "Trump!"
Author's Note: What are they teaching at the planetarium (otherwise known as the kindergarten)? Mercury, Venus, Trump, Mars, Jupiter....
Leander, my teen-friend in Kalentong
So handsome and so white.
One time, we crossed the bridge of neverlong
Far away from Planetarium with kite.
We saw a painting on a high concrete wall...
He said, "Spoliarium, too big and too tall!"
I said, "No. It looks like one in our school auditorium."
When we turned around, we are already in a polyandrium.
Then we ran.
A power plant or a powder room? Your choice
Crap!
One of those dreams again.
I had already had one of these last Thursday.
Isn’t there a limit or something?
I knew if I chose the wrong one
I could end up boiled in strawberry Jell-O
or
my teeth could be pulled out by rusty pliers.
I choose planetarium, I said smartly.
Found myself trampled by a swarthy buffalo a few seconds later.
Is a hemispherical
Dome. When you go in there is star light
To guide everyone to a seat.
It is so neat.
The most magical
Show begins to take flight
As we are staring
At the ceiling
Where technology shows us celestial
Bodies with music and lights.
It takes us on an astronomical
Pheomena adventure that is historical,
Inspirational,
Shows the existence,
And consistence
Of the universe
Where God has always existed.
