flat...

flat

or round

domed firmament

or Van Allen belt

regardless

you can't get there

from here

at least

that way

besides

the childhood

dream

of being

an astronaut

not mine

claustrophobic

for starters

cowboy independence

maybe

actually

just being

grown up

knowing

the truth

justice

and the American

way

these latter two

slogans

to sell

the former

propaganda

as a good

cause

question that

my little pretties

for your pussy

depends

upon

the value

of motherhood

a rabid dog

of bitch

or

a momma bear

ferociously protective

clawing

to shreds

any threat

w/out so much

as

a simple pause

of

rational query

blood

dripping

from

razor paws

instinctive reaction

blunt force trauma

a brutality

provided

leaving only

a limp carcass

as a lesson

to learn

don't fuck

w/a womb's

spawn

and transgenderbending

is certainly

not

an either/or

value

pure fiction

as is

a three year old

rocketman

fireman

policewoman

cowboy

or indian

a game

of

little consequence

as another candle

on the cake

another wishful

thought

just before

it's extinguishment

into the aether

as smoke

mirrors

of magic

persist

for some say

it is both

in the end

we will probably find

it is neither

flat

nor round
