Cosmic reality.

Cosmic reality.

A Poem by SELF

A big clump of rock spinning spinning spinning
the equation of life un-fathomable un-imaginable un certain
a big clump of rock that weighs six sextillion tons - (a  unit followed by 21 ciphers)
In the void of space it lingers on
beneath its surface bodies are put to rest
they say rest in peace but peace is a luxury many perish without knowing 
they have never known peace
the tune of peace is a rhythm found within 
afraid to look inside of ourselves
or maybe
a choice to not look at all
some say the earth is flat
some say the earth is round
either ways, it will be here after you and me are long gone, resting in peace maybe. 
I haven't went up there to check but I know the earth's shape isn't perfect
there's a residue of imperfection in everything
there's also beauty in imperfection, beauty in the struggle as well
human beings are made weak in the flesh
there's a wobble in the earth
there's a wobble in us humans
The struggle of creation to bring itself out of darkness must have been quite painful, in fact, there are no "must have beens" and "maybes"! It was indeed a painful experience
witness the pain a mother feels while giving birth
that pain bears witness to the pain of self-creation
In the midst of that pain
she longs for ease, a moment of comfort
the new born makes a cry and as soon as the mother holds the baby, the pain dissipates
after suffering comes ease.
