Out beyond us all,
a comet as big as London
is just visible with it's golden light
and blue tail for us to witness,
a marvel to provoke context,
to kindle a sense of wonder,
to destroy selfishness,
looking outward to look inward,
a lump of iced matter
to chill our arrogance,
a moment away from daily life,
a prompt to understand our insignificance.
Out there we may find answers
to the evil streak on Earth,
to the disgrace of the human race,
why we waste lives and time,
but we are not out there.
We are here,
opportunities to hit,
opportunities to miss,
we are here
and this is this.
