Gods of the Universe

every story of crime or war
de-souling of humans
sun, moon and stars
What’s the point in being
a mute witness?
you join criminals in the dark

you watch soundlessly
confusion in un-lighted psyches
fail to make truth heard
hide facts in darkness or glare
strengthen erroneous beliefs
no enlightenment, no relief

mental stories asphyxiate
no one else can relate
unheeled, uncrowned islands
floating in etherness
imperceptible, undefined

dark holes, infinity, spaces
support the unexplainable
theories in lab-like places
invented to make sense
of what is legible, visible
perceptible, audible

Gods of the Universe!
Will you stop making sense
If reality is loud and clear
Will you lose relevance
If dots connect
Souls remember
