Time on Earth

The earth is 27 trillion years old.

It is nine o’clock

I was staring at the clock,

This seemed possible

On earth, which means rock,

In an ancient alien language,

What has survived is simple,

All of the money…

Does it add up to 27 trillion yet?

Are we counting? Cataloguing our past?

Are we in a dream?

We are intoxicated

By this jewel in the galaxy,

Also, this earth is hidden in the universe,

Discovered four different times

Throughout these 27 trillion years.

Spaceships, Aliens, us.

Their souls reborn, trapped on the earth,

They settled and merged

With biology of this intoxicating planet;

Body, Spirit and Soul

They bred millions of new souls

We are now eight billion.

This may have happened before,

Dinosaurs could have existed several times,

“Jesus", She, The Earth,

The Scripture we remember

Is from other planets,

From other galaxies, from our origin.

This planet may have survived many huge

Transformations;

Covered by deserts,

Mountains that came and then left,

Ice ages plentiful,

Are we headed to another?

Perhaps our global warming

Will cause a catastrophic reaction

From this being, this planet,

On which we live…

She will awaken,

But we will be reborn,

As we always are

Hidden beasts:

Worms like in Dune, The Kraken, Giants,

The Loch Ness Monster, Nephilim

Leviathan, Demons, Angels,

All real

All of it is real;

Dwarves, dragons, hobbits,

Wizards and Orcs alike,

Global war, histories that seem endless,

These fantasies come from deep, deep

Inside our universal memory,

Memory of Trillions of years,

Our souls laid to rest,

They then awaken, and are reborn.

Lives are repeated but new,

We have lived as creatures

Aside all of these monsters

That evolved here as we did.

Our souls cannot leave to other galaxies,

In a way we are trapped

On this jewel of the Universe.

What has been repeated?

Perhaps it all has integrated

Into a planetary intelligence,

So exact repetition is impossible.

In our memories,

Of living, striving, surviving, thriving,

Fighting, bleeding, suffering,

Everything we have ever seen or lived,

Everything that has ever been written:

The Bible, Sanskrit, The Analects, The Torah,

The Five Pillars, The Four Noble Truths,

Tarot, Hindu Chanting, The Tao…

It comes from within, within ancient memory,

Mermaids and Vampires, Fairy Tales,

Science Fiction, Real Fiction, Fantasy, Horror

Is real

It all could be,

It is, It was

If time were extended,

27 Trillion

A magic number, a magic truth
