Up Sell - Part 3
Diphthong, please,
don’t encourage further purchases.
We’ve already spent
twenty thousand Orwell’s
and sixty five Verne’s
Thank you for your services.
But you’re unsympathetic to our
Financial concerns.
I beg to differ
Saving you money
Has been top of my mind
The entire time
my dogged sales perseverance
Is magnanimous not phony
An Installation of this kind
is not covered by insurance.
That said
I have one final offer
A vision, hearing upgrade.
Perfect sighted eyes ...
don’t encourage further purchases.

Not Alone
faster than the speed of light
electric currents reversed might
be power enough to propel
interstellar spaceships well
into what is in between
solar systems in a stream
of backwards electricity
everywhere and always free...
faster than the speed of light
accelerating, it just might
be the measure of the Earth
by going faster to give birth
to interspecies first contact
attaining everything we lacked
when, slower than the speed of light,
we passed each day and too each night...
faster than...

Time Travel (2022)
time travel
close your eyes
anytime you want
now lies
in your grasp
just concentrate
now let go
there is no wait
there is no time
there's just a sea
of seething
possibility
into the future
into the past
it's all taking place
so fast -
you can not
interact
observe only
then come back
into your body
into your mind
into the present
into this time
close your eyes
anytime you want
now lies
in your grasp
just concentrate
now let go
there is no wait
there is no time
there's just a sea
of seething
possibility
into the future
into the past
it's all taking place
so fast -
you can not
interact
observe only
then come back
into your body
into your mind
into the present
into this time

Martian Dream
into the forest following a stream
am I awake or am I in a dream?
it's not the Earth but somewhere similar
maybe on a planet near to Proxima
there are people, beings here and there
communicating mind to mind as we share
where we came from, where we plan to go
am I dreaming? can I really know?
if I wake up will it disappear
or will I realize I am always near
to the many species traveling the stars
will we meet again when I am on Mars?
with dusty ruins in many places found
where it's people are living...

Red Sun Fountains
a golden sunrise in the morning
we did not expect
streaming starlight at the dawning
with celestial effect
mesmerizing and surprising
rays of light expand
atmospheric beauty ties in
to where we stand
by the ocean near the mountains
here on Planet B
from the twilight red Sun fountains
fall on you and me-
an onshore breeze, cooling, pleases
while beginning to explore
a valley lush which nearby teases
'there is something more'-
beneath the trees with rustling leaves
following a stream ...

Falling Out of Time
faster faster time streams by
faster faster it seems I
am beginning to lose my grip
falling out of time to slip
into silence, sitting still
spine erect, I know I will
enter into mind beyond
where I thought I once belonged
superficiality
evaporates so I can see
what is coming, what has gone
much more clearly, moving on
radiating in a sphere
a special kind of atmosphere
in which to travel through deep space
fifteen light years to then face
red sun Gliese 6 8 7
Plant D, an Earth-like...

No More Earth
no more Earth, it's disappeared
we're in space and feeling weird,
tingling birkeland currents flow
ever faster as we go
on our way to Planet B
an Earth-like world no one can see
with Proxima 'though far away,
faster than a cosmic ray
faster than the speed of light
through an endless starry night
driven by an unseen force
ever onwards right on course -
minutes turning into hours
electricity is what powers
all the stars, too you and me
just a day before we see
a small red star up ahead ...

Tyranny & Mutation
Without truth, there is no accountability
Without accountability, there is no self-determination
Without self-determination, there is no free will
Without free will, there is only tyranny...
...tyranny & mutation
Mesmeric monsters quelled all the passive masses
With atomic explosions, after the poisonous gases
And their once paradise planet, was razed to rubble
By a satanic insanity, where the doctrines befuddle
The inevitable end began, as the collective conscience abated
As the psychopathic, non humans, new Creation was...

This Is MAD!
We had it all, we thought, but it was only make believe
For we had our blind eyes turned, so we'd not perceive
As the automatons transmitted, non-intelligent comms
The despots rained upon us, their missiles and bombs
The sheep 'baaed' in their flocks, like irrational crowds
But the AI dispersed them, beneath mushroom clouds
The fiery end was torturous, in our apocalyptic demise
Incinerating our toxic screams and vaporizing their lies
In the non-now, lightning illuminates the poisonous rain
Where, in a nuclear winter, humanity's sanity's...

Homecoming
riding a comet through where the Sun
electrifies atoms as ions become
currents of power flowing between
the Sun and the planets in a great stream...
surfing these currents electrically
flying by Saturn and on just to see
Pluto and Sedna so far away
where Proxima beckons to end my stay...
into the darkness far far beyond
the solar system which I leave from
faster and faster through plasma induced
faster than lightspeed I am seduced
by the sensations of moving through space
