[hometext] => This poem is based on the song I hope you knew as a kid, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. I was just thinking of stars and stuff and I think poems like this are going to be a long line, for me at least.
[bodytext] => Twinkle, twinkle little star No more feelings Far above Drifting into little shapes Knowing nothing Not anymore Once you were young, Now young no longer You sit and sparkle Among the others Once you were living Like us down here Different times So far ago So much you've seen So much you've heard Light years away You once were here Upon this earth Not once a human But an animal Bear, cat, dinosaur, dodo bird You were once But no more For you have risen, Your soul crystallized For eternity Surrounded by humans Now ageless They sit among you Knowing nothing Seeing nothing Hearing nothing Being nothing They are the night sky, The blackest of black Shown their true form Their souls blackened From hate That animals don't know Not crystallized, but burned Not floating, but pinned Neither living nor nonliving They suffer forever Neither here nor there, They suffer forever [comments] => 2 [counter] => 238 [topic] => 25 [informant] => Nsa [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => MiscPoems )
