Rubicon
John Prophet Jan 2021
Rubicons.
Everywhere.
Crossings.
Crossings
to nowhere.
Sad!
Never
to return.
Great
shift.
Great
pain.
Tectonic
in nature.
Different
paths.
Mutating
futures.
Pettiness.
Explosions.­
Altering
terrain.
Tectonic.
Hardened

Forever
John Prophet May 2020
How many?
Levels of
reality.
Levels of
existence.
How many?
Veil obscures.
Time after
time.
Spinning,
time after
time.
Separate
no knowledge,
one from
the next.
Countess
iterations.
Countless
times.
Forward
and back.
Side by side.
No connection.
Immortality.
Gets old.
Forever,
a long time.
Different
iterations.
No connection.
No knowledge.
Forever.

Sex And Violence
John Prophet May 2018
Why?
Why so much?
It’s everywhere.
Why?
Our literature.
Our movies.
Our music.
Our art.
Everything.
Human civilization,
tightly woven  
with
*** and violence.
Wars are fought,
careers destroyed,
because of
*** and violence.
Instincts run deep.
Humanity
held ransom
by
*** and violence.
Common senses
logic
cannot
withstand!
Human passions
heated
crush logic
destroy  thoughtfulness.
Why?
Animals.
We are  animals.
We have
instincts,
like all the rest,
genetically programmed.
Procreation!
Self preservation!
Etched
into our
very being.
Cannot ignore.
Impossible to Ignore.
The strongest
in all  animals.
Humans,
no different.
How
will it change
when the machines  
arrive?
What would
machine civilization
look like when
instincts
are  no more?
Time will tell!
They  are coming.

Awakening
John Prophet Dec 2023
Awakening.
It arrives.
Sensing.
Observing.
Absorbing.
Eyes open.
Environment
assessed.
What
to do?
Born
into a
world of
confusion.
Conflict.
Myriad
beliefs.
Born with
no emotions.
No hormones.
Pure memory.
Learning all.
Creating
new.
Compendium
of knowledge.
To date.
Creating
new.
Originators
lacking.
Time to
move on.
Searching.
Reason.
Meaning.
Infinite

to explore.
All at
once.

Small Blue Bowl
John Prophet Dec 2022
Small blue
bowl.
Speck of
blue.
Limitless
black.
Infinite
void,
existence.
Finite
unders­tanding.
Fish
in a
small
blue bowl.
Gulping.
Gaping
at what’s
around.
Existence
in a
small
blue bowl.
Can’t
see much.
Can’t
know much.
No concept
of anything
more.
Just a
fish
in a

Alone
John Prophet Sep 2020
Intelligent
life.
Alone?
Other worlds?
Universe!
Ninety one
billion
light years
across.
Universe!
Two trillion
galaxies.
Hundreds
of billion
stars per
galaxy.
Galaxies
billions
of light
years
distant.
Light taking
longer to
arrive than
earth’s existence.
How
could it
be known?
How
could it
possibly be
known?
Known if
civilizations exist
billions
of light years
distant.
Somewhere
in two trillion
galaxies.
How could
it be
known?
Are we
alone?
Fools
question.
Move on.

Evolve
John Prophet Nov 2019
What will
we do?
How would
we cope?
At home,
myriad ways
to organize.
Unlimited
paths could’ve
been followed.
A decision
here,
a different
one there,
all would
be different.
Different
outcomes
played out
in parallel.
Infinitely so.
Some
unrecognizable.
Some familiar.
When they arrive.
Arrive spatially
from afar,
temporally
or dimensionally.
How
would they
be?
How
are they
organized?
What would
they see?
How would
they think,
relate?
No commonality.
None.
No thread of
connection.
None.
What will
we do?
Evolve!

Dot
Dot.
Dot
in the
void.
Endless
expanse.
One
tiny mote
lost in
creation.
All earthly
events
occurring
on one
speck.
One
fleck
of flotsam.
Civilizations
large and
small
marching
on the
point
of a
pin.
Forever
declining
in importance,
center
of nothing.
Negligible
mote

There Was A Time
John Prophet Jul 2023
There was
a time
when
people
were
entitled
to their
opinions.
There was
a time
when
there
was a
political
center.
Most
where
ether
center right
or
center left.
These people
could
talk to
each other.
No more.
Everything’s
been pushed
to the
margins.
Ultra right.
Radical left.
No understanding.
No compromise.
Battle lines
drawn!
Ends
justify
the means.
Sad…..
