As I gaze into the wild, impartial skies
All the day and some of the night,
I see a void where nothing lies
Full of naught, yet awfully bright.
Then, before my resourceful eyes,
A world begins to materialize.
I think some beings into the fray
And now my thoughts are on their way.
Peace hold out for quite some time,
But war eventually grabs my mind!
And lo and behold my world no more,
My thoughts are nothing but clutted gore!
I shake my head and close my eyes,
I blow my nose and slowly rise,
I look ahead, beyond the sky,
And think of thoughts that gradually die.
I wipe a tear and heave a sigh,
And lay back down and wonder why...
The void once seen is out of sight,
Formally nothing and endlessly bright.
