Suppose Poem by L MILTON HANKINS

Suppose

Rating: 4.5


Suppose the world as we know it today-
Continents, oceans, and ice caps went away
Along with constellations and communications
And all the planning for next year's vacations
No longer to worry about paying the bills
Or remembering what times I must take my pills
I would not take on any future obligations
Nor consider a need for further negotiations
What would worry me most of all, it seems
Are my paltry possessions and sundry dreams
All that truly worries me this present moment
Is swallowed up in one unimaginable event.

I wrote the poem 'What Does An 85% Dark Matter Missing Universe Mean? ', inspired by the poem 'Suppose', by the poet L MILTON HANKINS and dedicated to L MILTON HANKINS.

'I would not take on any future obligations Nor consider a need for further negotiations' true, i am not sure your left with anything to stand on, when the constellations went away I think you might have ceased to exist, a permanent prevention of future problems

A well written poem and as far as worry goes it's best not to worry at all especially in suppositions.
