Ponder
01/20/2000
by Tom Murray
Let us remember light and dark,
the silence of dreaded noise
and death.
Happy potatoes
thrive in the dirt, swollen
immensities, giving enlightenment
to our future.
Remember what is good and bad
with veiled efficiency.
Action is the dreadful noise.
Action is the haughty dream.
Ponder that butterflies
have lived in space.
