Oblivious truth

 

 

There's much to be said

for those eyes refusing to see the obvious 

It seems blindness is a choice

or some chemical imbalance certifiable.


No matter how many times they tried

making some meagre offering

to the Gods of serendipity,

they just could not move

in the same circles of atmosphere.


He was of copper

and she of diamonds

but the rarer kind 

and whilst his seasoned teal

very much beautified him against his copper,

his beauty did not match

the incandescent spectrums

emanating from her core.


Though she sparkled brighter

as he passed her orbit

happily catching

the brilliance of the sun

reflected by him;


The angle of trajectory was precarious.

As they would each time,

almost always slam into other passing bodies

causing chaos!

They were oblivious

to the sentiments of the universe.


It was one of those things

that everyone else could see,

but they very much couldn’t. 


I’ve looked and I've tried, 

but I've still, never seen a copper diamond ring.


I couldn't ever think why?

"...they were oblivious to the sentiments of the universe..."

Oh, my dear, how often this occurs. Those ships will pass in the evening won't they? I love this line because of higher orders of understanding not attained or reached for during any endeavor. Bravo! A wondrous theme. - slc
