Errant Planet – v2


We are perched,
walking on the edge
of an errant planet,
off-kilter and dizzy
wobbling off course
in its orbit, spinning

straying from the
straight and narrow
the true path, planned,
following baser needs
and primal urges

shielding eyes from the glare
stark light exposed
of the echo, the memory
the Word made flesh
the last truth
denied then too
