What Brings Us Together? May 2, 2024

the bait of a total eclipse

creates a mecca in the sky

to pay homage to the dalliance

of the sun and moon

 

voyeurs curiously weep

and laugh  hug their awe

as they watch the culmination

of a dark distant orgasm

 

I wonder what other miracle

might cause those millions

to gape and swoon

and lift their eyes to heaven

 

perhaps God coming down

with winning lottery

tickets to hand out

 

and the joy of those tears

would that be for Him

 

or the cash payout

all taxes waived
