Mechanical

poem by: John Prophet
Written on Apr 16, 2020 

Stars shine.
Planets spin.
Mechanical 
in nature.
Mechanical 
universe.
Unyielding 
in purpose.
No fear.
No pain.
Cares not, 
just is.
Cold burning 
reality.
Life.
Somehow 
life.
Propagate.
Covering 
evolving,
expanding.
Cosmos ignores.
Limitless time.
Moving forward,
limitless time.
Life evaporates. 
Ceases to
exist.
Deep time
crushes.
Cosmos
takes no
notice.
Stars shines,
planets spin.
Life vaporizes.
The nature
of things!
