The Day the Universe Suffered an Anxiety Attack

By bdgrey

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

When the land I failed to see, pops up right in front of me. I can do no less than faint my beating heart, and watch as my confused mind from my body parts. A fleeting moment, defined by line of fate, sits in the corner afraid, and then it's too late. So the world in its chaotic glory, moves without direction or place, contemplating this topsy-turvy story. One day the universe too had a thought, should it continue expanding endlessly, or should it just stop. Suffering from severe depression in life, the quake happened easing its strife, and the universe with the world that directly affected my mind, sought to solve its problem in very short time. And then a new star was born, under the absence of of its sister's, father before, so all was hectic in this vast world of blinking lights and caution hurled. Then the mind of one individual soul came into play, one on earth with a spirit as bright as a sunlit ray. The person looked to the sky sensing the conundrum, and simply said, "live your life as you would like". And that's all it took for everything to be as before, one heart and mind knowing of spiritual lore. And that's the day the the universe suffered an anxiety attack.This is just my attempt at being Kurt Vonnegut. j/k. I hope everyone enjoys the strangeness of it. I bet you all think I'm high or something, but I promise I'm not. Just an overactive imagination. Thank you. Written December 21st, 2001 © on Dec 20 2001 04:19 PM PST   0 • 10
