“A poet is a nightingale, who sits in darkness and sings to cheer its own solitude with sweet sounds.” -Percy Bysshe Shelley

Long-view
It gets worse,
or gets better.
Both
chaos and entropy
like cause and reaction
entwined for grounding
the current state.
There is no potential spark
where nothing is conductive.
This way,
we are all safe,
they say this is the only way
to survive
to sacrifice
our freedoms for fear.
What if...
the same question
was posed
If what...?
Layers of complexity are added for mystery;
Gloves, face masks, hats, sunglasses, shaggy hair, alcohol cologne, we have all become suspect(s).
To Be
Watched, traced, recorded, counted, slotted, allotted 1 per person, our fair shares tanked, our borrowed time was revoked, to be copied, pasted and erased.
Mankind does one through five:
Social Divorce, Marital sentences, home tutoring, web meeting, happy hours at home, time ambles a long dark path out of the woods, there are stones to throw and rocks to kick down the road.

Net wait
A blessing comes with a curse,
wait and good things will appear,
like whale spouts and comet tails bursting forth,
you will see-eventually.
And chances are
choices awaiting a verb,
like the other side of the coin
what is tossed in the air,
must plummet to its lowest nadir.
We have seen this played out. Likewise,
such sweeping statements, proverbs and prophecies,
do little for everything-in-all-times,
yet consistently, this movement tends to
strew the smallest fragments more widely
distributed across the floor and
atop all the lowest planes, building up-
just as the feather duster spreads its wings,
the timepiece propels one to practice
gathering oneself more
and in doing so, magnetism must assert
its basic properties are acuter
than our elemental bodies
behaving and obeying the laws.
Well, we can only collect our thoughts
and arrange them in an orderly fashion
so that they may be
overlooked,
making more room to move around and since
wisdom was a woman, things, like elimination,
we tend to find
liberating in corners.
Everything here, in a sense shows,
entropy was a mirror image of
this empty room, piling up with dunes of dust.
While waiting for change,
chaos was creating
lines in the sand and
when the wind broke in for one last sweep,
there was nothing to weigh any of us down.
The holes served their purpose.

Substitute Stars
Might it be that Mars is merely winking this way, ogling in orbit
then blushed when he saw-Us-
shadowed in his ruby glare?
All this while the meager moon hides behind a curtain in the corner;
shedding layers, seductively buoyed by
dark energy that winds while she rests up
in the next phase, the stars seem scattered by correlation
but brighter by chaos; letting go of the lighter matters,
you see
Colors could care less about our splendid collections,
kaleidoscopes and metronomes,
fractals and turbines, mirrors and machines, making
more of that
and like this
one oasis in potential grants more than any one wish
deservedly.
Tiny toys, glam and glitterati, Lucy and her rocks, likes
G.I. Joe and his grenades, helplessly She lies by He
pulling pins out of her hair, stripping down to barren
and lighting matches like flares, indistinguishable
in the universe.
We watch, perverted and diverted in curiosity, vapidly
spreading green gasses of dank envy throughout this galaxy,
as far as stars are pointed by projection,
there will be black holes
in his story.

Details: "NASA's Hubble Space Telescope took the picture of Mars on June 26, 2001, when Mars was approximately 68 million kilometers (43 million miles) from Earth — the closest Mars has ever been to Earth since 1988. Hubble can see details as small as 16 kilometers (10 miles) across. The colors have been carefully balanced to give a realistic view of Mars' hues as they might appear through a telescope. Especially striking is the large amount of seasonal dust storm activity seen in this image. One large storm system is churning high above the northern polar cap (top of image), and a smaller dust storm cloud can be seen nearby. Another large dust storm is spilling out of the giant Hellas impact basin in the Southern Hemisphere (lower right)."
