Beginning Alone

We look out to a cosmos of gargantuan expanse
Willing passage into night’s starlight dance
Wise nephilim through technology reveal
What histories thieves waive and conceal
Canals on Mars were proof at the last centuries turning
Chime in the millennium at a comet cult of lost souls learning
Consider crop circles two guys, two hours, a board, and a six
Crazy, silly, weird times and people humanity shall never lack
Iconoclast astronaut ingest the ambrosia via the ajar adytum
Inquire off the pale blue dot for isles of forgotten wisdom
Inhabitants valiant venture off verdant earth to the celestial
Skyward toward the face and ruins on Mars evidence of alien
Sanctum sanctorum awaits, satori, the ephemeral, the golden
Splendorous contact will raise God’s subtle and divine
shrouding
Stellar enormity belies eminent humanities imminent fated saga
Epochs will pass on emerald planets in the ebony void of space
Eclipsing ancient evidence keeping the enigma of a solitary race
Echoes of past revelations where vast galactic alibis will
astound
Eternally an Eden of stars and vestal planets will be found
