Universe Outside My Window

Look out the window, and I see

stars! I'm looking at the stars! So

what if I can't see them very well

there they are! Maybe it's just that 

my eyes are bad ok all of ours!

Telescopes first step to being there

with all the senses, or, we could 

just send a monkey! Maybe...

I think life will be familiar wherever

in the universe no stranger than here

on earth have you ever seem a blob 

fish?

(The Blob...nightmare/worst fear/ a mass

of amorphous goo capable of digestion/

you won't find it listed as blue plate special/

little kids' fear that the unknown could just

eat you up)

Meanwhile outside my window everything

else in the universe was happening oh my

goodness what a caution!.

Yeah, most of it's going on out there, not to

belittle my contribution to humanity: 

a snowflake on a burning stove.
