Space
by bugsbugs0 © 2007

A crescent moon in jewelled blackness lies
and scoffs at earth-bound man, who,
intent upon the skies
builds his machines to probe the universe.

What now, proud empty-headed fools
must you strive to prowl in space
before you walk sure-footed on the earth?
Political unrest, world-wide pollution with no solution,
and half your wealth and learning spent
on plans to seek new galaxies.

You will never make your peace with God
Your philosophy is weak your ways are odd,
Stay here on earth, lift your curse
before you spread it through the universe.
