Did you know that fungi
are the ghosts of ants
that led selfish lives
did you know that stars
are holes punched in night
by the human glance
of angel eyes, once
they saw how right
they were to fall.
Yet how short the stay,
and cruel the price.
Did you know in the seas
there are mermaids still?
they assembled themselves
from huge garbage drifts
like Sargasso seas, except
plastic and what should have
been landfill. Did you know we
can make up all of it? If we start
far from home, by the time we get
here, at least half might fit.
