Short Telescopes Poems

they look into our minds
they hurt our minds
we will destroy their galaxy....

My lenses 
might not always see 
everything clearly 
but when I focus in 
I 
 can 
  see 
    every   
      detail...

Scientists peer in telescopes
  microscopes, periscopes
It's a marvel what they see

I've no need of their equipment
  Au Natural's enough for me...

Dark matter makes scientists sweat
Their telescopes can't find it...yet
What's lost could be found
If they’d just turn around
And gaze at a sexy brunette...

Beams criss-cross Infinity's skies
    powerful telescopes, like trillions of eyes

  Seeking signs of intelligent life ~
    Pray, friends, it won't cause us strife...

oh field of bright sunflowers
an array of telescopes towers
every minute and every hour
that obey the dreams of
the Gods that lead us 
back to our daily bread...

       A world obsessed with technology
           leads mankind to dismiss teleology

       God has not been found by telescopes ~
           I’d suggest they try a stethoscope

Use telescopes but are
 Unable to count its
 Untold number of stars
 Utterly vast, stretching
 Unendingly across
 Upper galactic zones
 Until infinity

Passionately, so many care
  to discover life way out there
Straining their telescopes
  in futile nightly hopes...

It seems they never wonder
  about the exotic life down under
our teeming oceans and seas
  to which they say ~ 
    'No thank you, please'...

The exoplanet council's having a pow-wow
  Where are those amateur astronomers now

We've lost track of their telescopes
  Have all those earthlings given up hope

Optimistic that our lifeforms will soon be discovered
  Guess we'll have to wait 'til folks down there recover...

Words formed by man
Deeds done by hands
Nothing's new under the sun.

With television
Telescopes
Extraterrestrial tales,
Nothing's new under the sun.

Downtown, midtown, uptown,
All across the globe
Show me what's new under the sun.

There's change of mind
With our kind
But God is still God
Time after time.

Rejoice

REJOICE

Furiously French Kissing
therapeutic telescopes
with overly open eyes

Dance
Dance 
DANCE

Helplessly hip thrusting
Music Made by Mothering instincts
And eccentric emotions

Restrain
Restain 
RESTRAIN

How sweet to see the sun
In glory freshly learned
But precious potential pleasure
Leaves every eye burned...

I've resigned myself to sit in a corner
And though I am the corner
I know nothing of that at this time

Because I'm not a gatherer.

I pick things up and drop them
Along my travels

My all glory travels
My eternal traverse
My Great Divine

And from the corner I look
Through narrow telescopes.

Because I'm not talking to anyone....

there is no animation here
I've heard of what the 
telescopes see and what
is felt within the hearts
and souls of some.

and which way to go 
is about as clear as a
clean window -- the 
soul speaks as loudly
as my television but the 
touch is subtle

somewhere between
atoms and spirits, 
there is a balance 
a heart pumping 
of blood and love

both are real to me...

Sirus is unaware we are watching him
Through telescopes, for he never gets dim.
his effulgent light so radiant, vivid and bright
Shows us a blazing brilliance tonight

Sirus means glowing in Greek, my daughter says
She is a genius, named for my great-aunt Inez.
Sirus is also called the dog star says my little son Jake.
He is lighting up the sky tonight, sparkling up the lake....

They probably lay about up there,
peering down through cosmic telescopes,
giggling over their mugs of stardust tea.

“Another ‘new’ get rich quick scheme?
Or a means of living forever on nothing but kale and green juice?”
They laugh, nodding — no thanks, Earthlings.

And we keep searching, sending out signals,
as they coast back, soles on placid moons,
thinking, “They’ll figure it out… eventually.”...

Like stars when they show bright and clear

against the heavens’ midnight blue!

That’s how I want things to appear -

like stars when they show bright and clear,

as seen through telescopes, brought near

so I can comprehend the view.

Like stars when they show bright and clear

against the heavens’ midnight blue.

Telescopes bring into view
A distant object found.
By delighted astronomers,
A discovery profound.

In the Taurus constellation,
An elusive star appeared.
Observed in utter elation,
A cosmic orb austere.
	
Remote in stellar space, 
A profusion of colors glow,
In wondrous striking splendor,
A fresh ethereal show.  

Beyond the Milky Way,
Many light-years transcend.
The star’s amazing birth,
A new galactic friend....

She wept for this cause, 
They couldn’t see beyond the present,
They didn’t deem it an urgent course,
While few are willing to listen, the majority choose to resent.

They say that how could a child’s eye see beyond the wall,
They are also not without their periscopes,
She can envisage their fall,
It’s like viewing falling meteorites through telescopes.
 
A doomsday disaster,
All-inclusive none the master.

With our latest telescopes-
We could show our little hopes.
If we have a look at night,
We could see lots of stars in which are bright.
As far as our eyes sight can go,
The stars were born billions of years ago,
Our Universe has got seven layers,
Each of them are different from others.
How big our Universe is?
Lots of astrologists completed their thesis,
Still they couldn't get reliable answer,
More works to be done in near future....

We stare and stare, we strain our eyes,

Pointing telescopes towards the sky,

Hoping, one day to see

Our origins or our destiny.

Like ants attempting Everest,

Unlikely, yet we try our best,

For surely there are more than we,

And if we look, there may well be

Others looking towards their sky,

Who stare and stare, and strain their eyes.

IRIDESCENCE

an angle a view
illuminating
colour changing
soap bubbles
butterfly
wings and	
sea shells

fish tanks deflected
and reflected
light
rainbow colours
observed in
slanted shaded
delight

through shilling
telescopes
or by soft eyes
we recognise them
floatation’s of
imaginations
delicacy

how true is your
star of sparkling
observations
dazzled by the 
essence of
miraculous
iridescence?

Sorrow is the spawn of rich, elected meisters;
the Arms Race, the silent wars, and particle colliders,

The climb of Sputnik, the fires, and the importance of Geneva,
but the radaranges and spy planes have given us amnesia. 

The world has gone silent, despite being littered with radios,
the wordless conflict being observed from orbital telescopes.

The end of this rock is coming all too soon,
and the last tears to be shed will be shed from on the moon....

MIghty radar arrays,
Pointed at the sky,
Looking for intelligence,
Don't ask me why...

Incredibly strong telescopes,
On earth and in deep space,
Peering ever so eagerly,
To find another race....

Makes one wonder,
How many up there..
Are pointed down at us??
Apparently so far
We have not created a fuss...

I wonder from where they
are based,
On planets far or near? 
Either way I guess it
don't matter...
Because no intelligent
beings, here, there are....

Nocturne

When the evening dawns before the morning star has settled and
	telescopes are bent on insight mirroring the dark side of the moon
where scorched lenses dangle from molten lightning’s focus clear in dusk
	of stars behind the prisms of reflection condensed into sleep’s night
The time-place has arrived to shed the tombs of inner refuge’s prison
	to harvest deluge from inundated waters and lure the sun
enchant the story of narration in poetry and view the light where it belongs...
