Step Into My Poem

[Sitaram]

"Step into my poem,"
Said the spider to the fly,
"Beyond event-horizon,
In my black-hole universe."


I construct invent-horizons.
For as far as you can see,
Big-bang expanding time-spaces,
I catch some flies this way.


You are trapped
and I am free.


Cosmology, cosmetic,
Share an etymology,
Metaphorical adornment
For the entomology
Of spider-fly relations
In domestic policy.


The moment now is passing,
My fancy bubble bursts,
My imagery is cobwebs.


"Shoo fly! Away!"
