nothingness with stars

Post by revolutionR » November 8th, 2014, 12:40 am

When all I have left is the bare bones of words
only then will truth be able to show its vultures
there never was a time when things were not darker
because if we look into the darkness of outer space
we still only see nothing so we make up a presence
science is still busy filling the nothingness with stars
but cannot explain where the light came from
so we call it matter and dark matter
some mysterious force acting at a distance
is there some way we can fill up the black hole
that eats up stars, is there some mysterious middle
between all these forces acting on us from out there?
meanwhile they are arresting people for feeding homeless people

There are those who wander through the mysteries
and there are those who stick to a flat world
may the mystery-walkers be brave

arresting people for feeding the homeless?.....where did this abomination occur?
yes the vultures are circling above all, waiting for the burial as if they own the joint....

words please make me brave...judih

they arrested a 90 year old man in Florida, they are doing it in other areas
people called Food Not Bombs are being threatened with arrest, it seams
that the police can not tolerate people helping homeless unless they
have some kind of permit. Obviously it looks bad for the people who
make laws against homeless people. First they came for the homeless people.
Then they came for the poets....

I was trying to show how insane the world we live in is
you can read about all kinds of discoveries that scientists
are making about the cosmos we live in, and at the same
time giving food to homeless people is a no no.Maybe
they will start arresting people for feeding the squirrels
in the park. it's all those cadillac welfare moms fault.
Hey didn't Jesus feed homeless people?

she was shaking a coffee cup
with quarters and dimes in it
i asked, "are you hungry?"
and she gave me a glance
like a dying star
