The traveler has to knock
at every alien door
to come to his own,
and he has to wander
through all the outer worlds
to reach the innermost
shrine at the end.
- Rabindranath Tagore
Science, can you explain to me,
Why the things you say are so.
Why the universe does cluster,
And why the green things grow.
...
Stood on an electron looking
Through telescopes trying to
Observe whats out there,
That which is already seen
...
There's no-one there
As I cannot let it so
The black gas is contained within
My lungs & heartfelt melancholy.
...
Curled on my bed
Hard, cold, damp
Concrete floor beneith
My aching slumped limps.
