Recycled Stardust

Hi Everybody...new poem. Anyone have a piece I could use with it for Emotionography?


Recycled Stardust

earth is the cosmos' miracle baby
a once hot, rocky ball evolving into
the blue, green beauty queen of space


seeded by the celestial, she survived
bombardment and deadly solar winds
until her selfish offspring over-mutated…

foolishly thinking we’re the big picture
mankind's merely a sophisticated virus
knowingly destroying the hostess

we imagine some grand god will save us
from our greedy, shortsighted endeavors
but, she and we will perish in anonymity

forgotten in that myth called time,
maybe aliens will be able to harvest
our decayed bodies for fuel and plastics

For those of you who don't know me, I've been hanging out here for about six years
and have a non-commercial website with my poetry in it that many FAA artist have
most generously contributed to. I use their pieces and put links to their website on the
piece and in a credits page.

Thanks,
Jerry

Thanks so much Dorothy...your work actually looks like it would work real well with the poem. I'll definitely look it over better tonight after work

I love that piece Melissa, but you already let me use it on (Link to Regenesis) where it works great.

Thanks to Dorothy for letting me use "Glimpse Beyond" as well as Science Photo Library for permission to use "End of the World" -

Anyone who wants to be part of this project, just browse Emo and if you see a page with the writing hands picture at the top, it needs a second piece and if you have something that you think works with it, let me know. I love sharing this project with all my artist friends here.

Jerry
