Empty
Rooms
I was sitting
in an empty room
The forest
was in bloom here
The afternoon
rains on the flowers
|
The king of
the gods of Rome
The thunderbolt in his hand Slew the Titans for Oylmpus Is now hard for students to understand The second sun didn’t make it Its satellites trapped in place Staring down at its stormy failure Far from reach of the human race The reign of Jupiter is this Over before it can begin But earth goes on oblivious To the king that might have been I still wonder
where my mind was
