The World Is Not Your Mollusk
At the center of every lucky clam
there is a pearl. That pearl is wrapped
around a grain of sand that tricked
the clam into thinking it was ill.
We are all grains of sand
enveloped in the atmosphere
of a pearl, delicately floating
through dark and daunting
matter, making the galaxy ill
with our constant search
for origins, and our pedestal
for humanity.
Falling stars are flares.
Comets are warning missiles.
Asteroids are nuclear. Orbit is
the golden rule. The Milky Way is a message.
The sun is a pearl, and everything
we’ll never know is a clam shell
intent on remaining shut.
