Point Nemo Poem by Mark Heathcote

I've never seen a carrot ate top to bottom
I've only seen carrots ate bottom to top.
I've never seen the sunrise-a-sunset
at the same time but I'm led to believe it can happen.
Point Nemo didn't technically exist until 1992
closest inhabitants often are astronauts in space.
The blackest material in the world is Vantablack.
Absorbs 99% of light makes 3D objects look like 2D ones.
Our lives and the world are odd, very strange.
it's enough sometimes to find and experience-love
believe it is true then realize like everything else it's not.
It's not the sunrise or the sunset.
It's not the top or bottom, but it is Point Nemo
and at times it is the dimmest, brightest thing to each other
when our own, sunrays discover it without falter.
I've never seen a carrot ate top to bottom
I've only seen carrots ate bottom to top.
I've never seen the sunrise-a-sunset
at the same time but I'm led to believe it can happen.
Point Nemo didn't technically exist until 1992
closest inhabitants often are astronauts in heaven too.
