Empty Handed

Something so diabolical about the way
the sun pulls you into a field of gravity
or maybe its a partnership between three,
the sun-the earth-and the moon.

all much bigger than me
and any sort of influence i might have
so i resort to not knowing simple scientific facts
telling you to go on your way
make your silly, foolish decisions

how can i compete with the universe?
to you, i am barely someone
but to the wealth of space?
well,
let's just say,
i know who & what you'll choose

and it's bigger and badder
and louder and madder
and you'd be so much happier
and
and
it's a lost cause
you're already drifting
into the Invisible Lost.
