The life a man does boast is but a tryst Between the egos of his Cosmic gods, Who jest at gnarly oaks and monoliths; At twigs we humans foolishly are awed. Yet such does not render us simplified; Too great is Cosmo's pride in their amour, But secrets we'll uncover, stratified; Acceptance, such a silent petrichor. So let the veil be lifted, let us see, Existence as gossamer as the veil, Fragile as the primrose, less the beauty, On us, we hope, these Lover's dreams won't fail. At night we dream of worlds beyond the stars; Sits on their smallest finger, all of ours.

Cosmic Love (Sonnet)
The life a man does boast is but a tryst Between the egos of his Cosmic gods, Who jest at gnarly oaks and monoliths; At twigs we humans foolishly are awed. Yet such does not render us simplified; Too great is Cosmo's pride in their amour, But secrets we'll uncover, stratified; Acceptance, such a silent petrichor. So let the veil be lifted, let us see, Existence as gossamer as the veil, Fragile as the primrose, less the beauty, On us, we hope, these Lover's dreams won't fail. At night we dream of worlds beyond the stars; Sits on their smallest finger, all of ours.
