Subject: rahu and kethu


when rahu and kethu

swallowed the sun and the moon

in the morning skies

the world watched aghast

                                        on little screens far and wide

and many began to wonder

who appointed the sun as the sun
and the moon as the moon

and then

the anger took over

and
the world continued to revolve around the 
same
entities 

over and over again

in fearful amnesia

                        [so you really think you know what i think, huh?
                                you think you know "where" i "stand"?
                                you read me?

                                my "metaphors"?

think again....]

and
the world continued to revolve around the 
same
entities 

over and over again

in amnesia


                        when rahu and kethu

                        swallowed the sun and the moon

                        in the morning skies

                        the world watched aghast
                                                        on big screens far
and wide

                        and many began to wonder


*why*?
