When the Earth and Moon
were close as the oceans
of their molten blood

One and not congealed

When stars long dead
were newborn

One infinite mind's eye
looked on a nascent world
and permitted a passing conceit
God's reflection, Man

Now if that sorry S.O.B.
would just realize
the light is green

    I always enjoy your work, hack -- the transition from the lofty in the first few stanzas, to the bar-room in the final one adds a bit of humor to the wisdom of the work. Go!

    I love this poem, hack. I love the way it leads you one way and then into something else, and the beauty and humour of it. Very impressive.
