Have you ever wondered "how can space just keep going?" well.. even within a tiny box there is infinite space. The world is both infinitely large and infinitesimally small. you see its all about perception. our rationaliza process is a deceptive yet useful tool to help us make sence of our own existence. When trying to make sence of why space streatches to infinity ive come to the realization that nothing makes sence BUT infinity. there can be no limits. think of it this way.. can you imagine our universe not streatching to forever/ like what if our universe was inside of a giant box. then wed be forced to wonder well whats on the other side of that box? there couldn't be anything. but for there not to be anything makes no sense either. so with that being said we extend both infinatly outward and infinitely inward. we are a universe inside. did you know that we have as many molecules in our body as there are stars in the sky? and no part of our body is touching any other part of our body. were bacicly like hologram projections. you think you know reality? think again

sorry that wasn't a poem I just kinda posted what was at the top of my head. I love the pic by the way

I'll be back for this if I can come up with something... I just wanted to say the title reminded me of Toy Story xD

The First Hybrid Race


Floating endlessly in space without dimension
until reaching pre-programmed destination:
    Earth - now barren, dark and chaotic
silent witness to nuclear holocaust.

Born in space amidst chaos on Earth
from alien and human species
to start a new breed of race:
    the first alien-human hybrid!

Has the intelligence of Einstein,
strength and agility of Superman
This new generation of earthling
will make the former, a duckling

Travelling faster than light
turning everything in its path
into a quagma of oblivion;
destination within sight,
restless from a long flight.

From where it came from...life has no form,
any size or shape it can easily conform
depending on the vessel it occupies;
unlike water when frozen turns into ice
it's unaffected by extreme temperatures
transcending space and time.

Earth survived the nuclear blast
ready to host its new life form
I'm just under the shadows of doubt
pondering about the tragic past,
wondering what goes beyond infinity...

Thanks for the entry EngrVV

The pleasure is mine, RedBaron!

staying on topic can be difficult for me. i barely managed

Castor Vs Pollux

Give me a reason to sing
You spheres and Pleiades
By twilight let your beauty sustain me
Swear by the twelve-pathed heavens

These eyes dreamed shut
That virgin mind know thee
Fringe of attention teasing the unknown
Ab ovo, omnivident, among you

Hunter at my side, his stride eons long
The only honest things burn, their light a vigil
A rose climbs the deserted moon
While I sloth into the abyss, that it lack interest in me

In trepid vertigo, momentum braved
Horoscopes rewrite themselves, Damocles thrown upon his sword
Kismet folding upon, Moirai for a moment
Incongruous patterns emerge from the chaos

Vedas at my feet hum ‘Om’
If they die tonight that song will still haunt us
Fraught with bolide bodies, bright
Like calculated pierces through the veil

Thanks for the entry Utmakalitho.

Anymore takers?

"Immortal"

As I sat there on the bluff overlooking the water, I let the silence consume my thoughts.
Motionless ,thoughtless other than the one pressing my mind "What would life be like alone for eternity?"
Blankly I continued to stare out into the rolling blackness that was the sea.
Most suddenly from behind the only cloud lingering in the sky came the moon as full and bright as the day it was placed there. As it's reflection grew larger on the surface of the water I became entranced and climbed down the rocky bluff.
Standing on the shore I thought to myself
"Why would such a beautiful creation shine it's rays down on this pitiful world so lonely and hopeless?","Perhaps the moon grows bored or even lonely as well hanging in the heavens all night."
At this moment I stopped looking at the reflection and looked to it's pale counterpart above me.
I lifted my hand in salutations and called out to the heavenly body,"I fear I have grown as lonely as you my dear pale friend." The moon remained as motionless as I expected.
Right then I could feel my sanity slipping through my fingers like the sand below me and the hysteria built up a little more.
I slipped off my shoes and waded waist deep into the cold water. the chilled air made me catch my breath as the wind blew it's winter air inland.
My legs and toes became quickly numb as my mind had long been before this moment.
I stared up a the moon again and wondered if in all it's wholeness was it just as empty as I.
Devoid of all sense that once accompanied my thoughts I spoke aloud once more to the sky.
"Perhaps dear moon, If I lay myself down in this icy water and let the water fill my lungs, I like any other human, would perish and my body slowly decay with the tide so that I may look upon you for all eternity and never again have to wake to the glare of dawn upon me."
I stood there for a few more moments clutching myself tightly before questioning the sky once again.
"Moon! If I do lay myself down at this moment would you let me stay suspended in the sky with you forever?"
The moon still had no response for me,and hung there oblivious to my inquiry.
"Why had the moon not smiled back upon me?"
I shifted my gaze downward toward the waves that had begun to hit gently rock me.
Shivers ran through me as I thought of an eternity with no lasting love,friendship or happiness.
"Would I even drown like any other human or would I simply lay on the bottom , chest full and almost bursting still able to think aloud and feel my immortal heart beat."
Instead of sinking into the water as originally intended at the start of journey I began to walk back to the shore.
I slipped on my shoes once again and before climbing back up I looked back at the moons reflection for the last time and said
"Dear moon it seems as though if I did join you this night I may still be as lonely as I am among these mortals."
The pale orb still hung in the sky unchanging as ever,and I bade it goodnight.

Thanks for the entry, Amused_Muse.
