Poems
Aug 2017
Examined
Never hidden from sight,
the moral authority searches,
anonymous no more,
as microscopes quests.
Looking for meanings within meanings,
if any inkling of offense is found,
expect a social media stoning,
nothing can be let go.
Satellites, traffic cams, on every phone,
there is no escape, no recourse,
desert islands are no more,
everything can be seen, even under your skin.
We can look to the beginning of creation,
Hubble's eyes see deep,
Keppler examining long distances
attempting to find other habitable worlds.
Tethered to sea creatures,
patrolling the dark and pressured depths,
it is a visual world,
and there is no escape.
Examining eyes, stare my way,
but these I don't mind at all,
baby blues belonging to my wife,
attached to a smile.
