This Universe
This universe is mine, so leave it alone.
Let it be an island drifting in the neutrino
Populated, dark anti-matter empty sea.
Let me create what I will and all I want,
Sketching myself in the contour drawn among
The blooming nebulas and fading dwarf stars.
Then I can hope that electromagnetic
Fields will pull you in; gravity defiant,
You will attract the orbit of constellations
Which line and light my nightly bound hemispheres—
My celestial globes of expanding thought—
And realign the muted stellar twinkles
In my eye.
This universe is mine,
But I'm willing to share.
We could be intertwined
In the space of a stare.
In my eye,
I can see myself imploding inwards by the
Force of my independent will—my fission
Contracts chaotic reactions, splitting me.
The big bang from which all birth occurs, seems so
Distant, dissolving into mixtures of mem'ries.
Why do I resist the natural urges—
Undeniable inclinations—to act
Upon the instincts I've made for myself and
See the galaxies rise from my cosmic ash?
I have little control over what my laws
Have imposed, so rehab my old restrictions.
This universe is mine. Don't leave it alone.

They Say The Universe Will Expand So Fast
THEY SAY THE UNIVERSE WILL EXPAND SO FAST
They say the Universe will expand so fast
That no place will remain in touch with anyplace else
They say the universe will explode on itself
And leave us in another universe- parallel to this
They say the universe began so long ago
It has not begun
They say there is no universe- but a multiverse
They say the multiverse which we a part of
Has more than one tomorrow
And that where we are going
Is such a surprise
That we cannot possibly even begin to guess at it
They say the future
Is if not a miracle
Than a kind of Distant Dream so far from us
It cannot possibly connect to what we are and would be.
They say all all kinds of things
They don’t believe themselves.
They don’t know what to tell us
And we don’t know either
We live in our small space and time
And when our end comes
It will come
We pray to God
And don’t know if God will answer us in the end
But we pray
We hope
We don’t know for certain
Who and what we will become is unknown to us
But we pray God will save those we love

Simple Universe
A ray of light shimmers in the dark,
It has travelled for all its time;
Light has divinity when you perceive it,
Looking at knowledge is the matter of Light.
Force the mind towards enlightenment,
This made the universe a splendid place,
The galaxies are sending us wisdom.
Light has contrived colours,
It shapes the way of the world;
This ground beneath us relies on the heat
Of the sun, and the appearance of this sun
Is overwhelming, far more glorious than the planet.
Let the rays of light continue to thrive
In this simple universe.

Watching The Rebirth Of Your Star...(repost)
when your universe breaks
in the same manner that other universe does
the most natural thing
that must happen
i, in my own, planetary motion,
watch the shattering and the bursting
of the bubble
it is not that i want to see
how you destroy yourself
i am not that
sadistic, the stars know me by heart
and the moon likes me for that
it is this
within you, after, shall be
the birth of the
new star
and this happens
all you have to do is just wait
because
as always stars are born
after an explosion
tell you what?
it will be the best stage to watch
the nicest thing that happens to you
also happens
to me
and once again the universe
celebrates again
each, happy again,
following each own
planetary orbit
with Sun as God
with the other planets as
friends.

Einstein and Society
Much of what Einstein had to say
remains unexplained
100 years later,
in terms of impact his ideas have on society.
First, we need to comprehend
he sought
to explain everything.
We know the familiar E=mc2;
what does it really mean?
Astounding at the time
but now common place;
the idea states that energy and matter interrelate;
and matter can be changed to energy and vice versa.
What's not understood well
by many is
that matter
in being transformed to energy
has a exponential multiplier.
For example a ball dropped from two feet
lands with 10 times the force of a ball
dropped from one foot.
Why?
Dense Uranium 235 has many many electrons
and matter released into energy has a mulitiplier effect
with interactive transmutation
and in the end
gives us the Atomic Bomb
which of course
draws us one step nearer the end.
But note,
the other little understood fact here-;
An atomic explosion is not matter expanding
but space itself multiplying!
Not stretching-growing;
New Space!
But how is this?
Space, hence, time is malleable.
Einstein Two;
If space itself expands then what about light?
This is where Einstein started.
What is the nature of light?
Newton said the speed of light can not be exceeded..
Einstein says yes it can. And we have black holes where light itself
is not only bent but extinguished
and objects do indeed exceed light speed.
More: Light and the photons light is composed of,
can be in two,
perhaps three places
at the same time.
astoundingly
the same is true too
for all matter.
Stop your head from spinning, sit back down
and ask how is this possible?
More; We use this too in everyday life, .
this given us by Einstein and quantum physics;
computers are quantum devices
based on electrons existing as 1's and 0's
off and on;
but, poorly understood
is that each positive electron 'knows'
whether its negative counterpart is off
or on.
What?
That is correct. Not only true for your computer,
but all electrons in All Of The Universe
knows whether its counter part
has switched signs
and will go
positive if it's counterpart goes negative.
This is happening right now
in this computer and
IN ALL THE
UNIVERSE.
Think of a magnet and iron shavings.
Now Space, Time and Electrons all exist in some medium,
which we Dark Energy and Dark Matter
which we now understand comprizes 90% of the universe
about which we know little or nothing.
This other Dark Universe
interracts with our universe everyday.
We can see the effects
on our planets and galaxies.
This is proven.
So what is going on here?
Enter Einsteins Theory of Gravity
Newton always said that the apple falls from the tree and hits the ground
because of gravity.
The earth pulls the apple down.
Not true.
The apple is not falling.
It is being pushed.
By Space itself.
The Sun is not pulling on Earth
The Sun is displacing Space
around the earth
causing it to fall toward the Sun
propelled by that same displaced space.
The train coming toward us is not being propelled,
the train engine moves through space displacing space
and space itself bends
pulling the train along.
The plane flies because space, not air, lifts it.
So space itself multiples and bends, so does time;
that is why I can leave earth
return years later
younger than when I left.
Time itself has been altered
and, because when I move though space
time is altered too.
Get another cup of tea
and come back, there's more.
Now;
If all this is true of gravity
explain
how can it be
that I pick up a pencil
and defy the full pull of Earth's gravity
Gravity must be very weak if this is so easy..
Am I stronger than Earth?
Patience: Here is Einstein's view:
If space is malleable and electrons know
and communicate with their kin
our universe therefore must not be round but flat and super thin.
For example, the universe of the fish, is separated by a super thin
surface, upon which a row boat floats;
these two different universes, occupy the same space,
and, one at least one
is is totally unaware of the other.
The row-boater is intelligent, and, of course is aware of the fish.
But the fish are not.
In the larger universe we are the fish.
Other universes exist in the same time and space
separated by super thin membranes.
Thus is born Membrane Theory, Son of Quantum Physics.
If this is all true,
then multiple universes perhaps millions can all exist
simultaneously.
Multiples of me and you, like our electrons exist
close by among Membrane Universes floating nearby.
That is why I can pick up the pencil
because the gravity here in my room-
in my universe-is being counteracted by gravity
from one nearby universe occupying the same space and time.
If, every so often, Membrane Universes collide
this is the Big Bang we all know so well.
That is how, likely,
our Universe began.
But how to prove these?
Most of this has already been proven, experimentally.
A Big Collider (Hayden) seeking final proof in all this
is being built in Switzerland.
It will offer proof
by speeding up photons to near light speeds,
letting them collide;
if one disappears from this universe
then it has gone
to the other universe close by;
or we can get unexpected results
and our universe is destroyed
and a black hole results
and eats us all alive.
Stay tuned.
Collision expected sometime in 2009.
But you know
if all of this is true,
then maybe there are ghosts
living near by too.
and please don't mention
UFO's.

Two minds in Harmony for Tom Mariani
A myriad stars, bright points of light
are twinkling in the darkling sky
and many more beyond my sight
far from this island galaxy.
Another planet family
may orbit round some distant sun.
Considered mathematically
the odds are that there might be one.
Which is the same or similar
as those orbit our sun.
Perhaps some being sees our star
and sits and meditates upon.
The remote possibility.
a life form of a different sort
in some far distant galaxy.
A being capable of thought.
Is looking skywards wondering
about the stars he cannot see
and seriously pondering.
Upon the probability.
That sapient life is not confined
but wide spread through the universe.
A thought both beings keep in mind
A thought that others think perverse.
I wonder if one day there’ll
be some way we can communicate.
Perhaps by thought telepathy.
Now there’s something to contemplate.

Wow, this aint the right thing to do
So, so let, so lets go
Young girls they know what theyre after
Young girls dont kiss me goodbye
Rockets shooting up into space
Buildings they rise to the skies
Bang bang I got mine
Bang bang reach for the sky
I keep a good friend on videotape
Hell drive his sports car until its too late
But well have a hot time on the town tonight
Cause love is my bet and its the best yet
Bang bang I got mine
Bang bang sun dont shine
Bang bang you all angels
Bang bang now you all ought to be in pictures
Oh girl

Bang bang and you are next in line
Bang bang reach for the sky

Just come in first

Bang bang

The theory and remedy
Time in a billion years after
Shall cease
And everything grinds to a halt,
Do you not feel the distant stars
Moving faster away from you?
Things move away rapidly
Stars explode
On the fringes of this universe
Shooting through space
Jump then to another
Universe
Before ours gets used up
The luxury of worrying
About our age
Shall now dissipate
On a rundown universe
At any rate why
Worry? I do not intend

Disappearing Fences
Shepards from the cosmic come.
Prepared to invade this dimension fading.
Obvious is the mental lift they gift.
Dissolving quick are traditions drifting.
Are we not in this universe?
Arriving to leave a planet we call Earth.
Some have decided to conquer and divide.
To rule with delusions of who dies,
And who shall reside.
But this barbaricness soon comes to an end!
Nothing keeps an awakening that reaps...
Nor is there a defense,
To protect those behind disappearing fences.
Blending without blood shed to bleed.

Cloudburst Of Romantics
They took the hike
He tasted the cold snow
Of the mountain top
She pumped and pumped
Her legs as she escalate
With the thinning air
Until they conquered
The lofty slope
Aghast, they panted
And spoke each other's name
They were at the top of the world
A perfect place to fall
Together, they filled the skies
With new born nebulas and
Took each turn to admire
Their lofty masterpiece
From her tiny drops of Jupiter
To his reigning ring of Saturn
They owned the universe
The blinding pole dance
Of their creation blinded them
Of the spilled milk;
A sap of life,
a premature death
The universe, their universe,
Continued to spun its yarns
until she was gravid
With stars
But he wouldn't
Consign to the risk
It was just his fix:
Star hunting
Still she wove and wove
The celestial dawn that brought
Their universe together
Only to discover
That while she sat
Engulfed by her dancing comets
He went on to collect
New constricted rings
For his assuaging fix
And in that nook of the universe
Where he was the center
She rocked out of keel
Devoured by the shadows
Casted by garish starlights
Laid before the judgment
Of Babylonian gods
A blackhole is being born
In this abortive bliss
That even the brightest stars
Their once redeeming universe
Could not light.

The Illusion of Gravity
Gravity is an illusion, says the Scientific American
in its issue of November 2005.
Well, then how come that I cannot fly like a bird?
Oh no, smiles Professor Juan Maldacena.
Gravity, he explains, is one of the dimensions of space,
and it might be a holographic phenomenon
caused by the interactions of quantum particles
and fields in a lower-dimensional domain.
It sounds good, professor, but are we closer now to
the understanding of reality than we were last October?
As you know, Newton thought that gravitation
was the attractive force between masses of matter
but Einstein concluded that it resulted from
the warping of space and time by objects that follow
the geometrical curvature of the cosmos.
Now let us change a bit the topic and talk about
evidence. We still do not have the evidence that the sun
will rise tomorrow. Yes, the probability for it is high.
But science is an evidence-based enterprise and we just
don’t have the evidence for tomorrow’s sunrise, have we?
Mind you, chaos, chance or quantum entanglement show
that nature does not care much about laws of causality.
Hi, a bunch of atoms just defied gravity in my room
and jumped to the moon.
Well, class starts at 8: 00 in New York but now
it is already 8: 13, so I am late. Did time cause me being
late? Or maybe it was the traffic. Or perhaps I was late
because I misplaced my briefcase. No problem,
gravity is just an illusion, let us hop to San Francisco,
and I am early.
And now, if you don’t mind,
I have a question: Does your mind create
holographic phenomena? And can we comprehend
the concrete universe through the abstract metaphors
of matter, energy, space, time and gravity?

Do You Believe In God?
The Universe unfolds each day, God's map for lost Mankind,
Yet to the sun and moon some pray with faith that's oh so blind.
The Universe holds secrets still, alignments in the stars,
Perhaps one day we'll get a thrill from Jupiter and Mars.
The Universe sends forth its sounds like Morse Code from above,
But even while noise does the rounds, there's not one word of love.
The Universe has stars to spare and yet what are these worth?
So I believe it's best to care about what's here on Earth.
This Sacred Earth is where Christ trod as He preached to and fro
And where He led the lost to God... and bled... His love to show...
This Sacred Earth stores memories of Calvary and more,
Of Israel and God's prophecies fulfilled and yet in store.
This Sacred Earth still spins in space awaiting Christ's return...
For miracles that must take place and lessons Man must learn.
This Sacred Earth obeys God's Laws - it's us God must forgive.
Faith's choice is mine and also yours. Christ died that we might live.

Another Creation
Detaches,
a part of me. To find some space.
Time cracks a dark matter with unknown speed,
colliding to release the invisible. Chilled
particles land on distant psyche. I will
give you blue rains.
It hurts when I think between choice
and will. Light was arrested in the stone.
At dusk the stone becomes a star.
I kiss a beam and bid goodbye to stilled doors,
of my ancient past.
This universe,
after the bang
plunged in a dry desert, moving
through dooms. Yes and no confirmed to uncertainty.
Another explosion will expand into
a fresh galaxy. I will watch the rise
of hundred suns.
