Alpha To Omega Poem by Patti Masterman

The sky is just another highway:
Burnt white by the sun's time wheel
A template of restless motion
Peopled by the wisps of our imaginings
The alpha and omega, of all that's known
Past Earth's milk clouded gaze.

The sky is just another highway
Strewn with comets on their way
To other unknown dawns, ringing alien suns
Of birth panged planets,
Matters all-seeding journey
To proof the farthest reaches.

The sky is just another highway
It's laws are different from our laws:
A highway that reaches straight overhead
Speeding toward the brightest flames in heaven
To illumine the embrace of past and present
Where is found the bright cusp of tomorrow.
