The light cascading down,
This stunning star shined as silver reflected
Across pure purpose itself with
Pure rays directed beneath the death lens,
And glowed,
With an exquisite light at dusk and night
Felt by all
Every day, as
For always seen in the spirit
Yet unknowingly?
"How can something be felt be unknown every day?" is the question
Plaguing the wisest
For billowing clouds covered its radiant glow,
With sole warmth offered, and
Rays refracted,
Driving the penman out
But searched only shallow can be discovered,
So was all the star needed.
For only the Moon,
Jealousy overfilling its rim,
Should be seen
Because its light should be all that be known,
Should only triumph and courage show,
Yet never produced light did thee
So the star withered quietly,
Never to be seen exit,
Never to be helped,
For the Moon's ravishing theatrical skills,
Kept most at bay
The others,
Insignificant to
Count
Too late was knowledge,
As mockery of the people shown,
As the Moon faded into a shadow,
Trivial to those who scour
Darkness shook the dinner plate,
Only a mouse's crumb
To be seen
With silverware reduced
For every mouthful savored
As famine and starvation struck
Lo and behold,
Civilization crumpled,
In Just
One
Day
As for the cockroaches,
Countless events have passed,
Similar fate told,
Losses in infinity,
For only they hold.

This piece represents society in most historical and contemporary times. With mathematicians and physicists unknown to the rest of society and politicians the main focus, society forgets the innovation and beauty of the technologies they take for granted.
