Strangest

The Euphasids of Minerva

A densely woven carpet of life

Concealing hidden depth

From sonic finders

He said they were 300 feet thick

Many coloured, rapidly moving

With flashing lights, predacious

and warring

A line between technology and

True understanding, a natural impediment

to progress

Life calling back to instruments, saying

No, you can hear no farther

The veil will remain in place

Until twilight arrives

Back to poems
