SPIRAL

SPIRAL

Must check
the physics of its orbit

for I feel the planet
is off course

its circular pathway
around the Sun
has gone into a spiral
a downward corkscrew
nothing
Fibonacci about it
regular
or golden

this is what you get
when you give
the keys to the door
to a gang of
stupid, selfish
power hungry apea
who
in their hubris
branded themselves
“humanity”
set themselves, in
their imaginations,
to conquer
the galaxy

let us just
take a solemn moment
to laugh at that now
