Little Orphic Annie
Unravelling blues, violets, pinks, and beige,
My soul is a rainbow in absentia.
Absinth pages, green, and golden snow,
Little Orphic Annie came to Arhus to stay.
While vertiginous goblins gambolled along,
And had their way with her again,
In crimson flow and cosmic pain.
"Little Orphant Annie" is an 1885 poem written by James Whitcomb Riley
Little Orphant Annie
Little Orphant Annie's come to our house to stay,
An' wash the cups an' saucers up, an' brush the crumbs away,
An' shoo the chickens off the porch, an' dust the hearth, an' sweep,
An' make the fire, an' bake the bread, an' earn her board-an'-keep;
An' all us other children, when the supper-things is done,
We set around the kitchen fire an' has the mostest fun
A-list'nin' to the witch-tales 'at Annie tells about,
An' the Gobble-uns 'at gits you
Ef you
Don't
Watch
Out!
Wunst they wuz a little boy wouldn't say his prayers,--
An' when he went to bed at night, away up-stairs,
His Mammy heerd him holler, an' his Daddy heerd him bawl,
An' when they turn't the kivvers down, he wuzn't there at all!
An' they seeked him in the rafter-room, an' cubby-hole, an' press,
An' seeked him up the chimbly-flue, an' ever'-wheres, I guess;
But all they ever found wuz thist his pants an' roundabout:--
An' the Gobble-uns 'll git you
Ef you
Don't
Watch
Out!
An' one time a little girl 'ud allus laugh an' grin,
An' make fun of ever' one, an' all her blood-an'-kin;
An' wunst, when they was "company," an' ole folks wuz there,
She mocked 'em an' shocked 'em, an' said she didn't care!
An' thist as she kicked her heels, an' turn't to run an' hide,
They wuz two great big Black Things a-standin' by her side,
An' they snatched her through the ceilin' 'fore she knowed what she's about!
An' the Gobble-uns 'll git you
Ef you
Don't
Watch
Out!
An' little Orphant Annie says, when the blaze is blue,
An' the lamp-wick sputters, an' the wind goes woo-oo!
An' you hear the crickets quit, an' the moon is gray,
An' the lightnin'-bugs in dew is all squenched away,--
You better mind yer parunts, an' yer teachurs fond an' dear,
An' churish them 'at loves you, an' dry the orphant's tear,
An' he'p the pore an' needy ones 'at clusters all about,
Er the Gobble-uns 'll git you
Ef you
Don't
Watch
Out!

Xenology
The study of extra-terrestial life.
Philosophy must be as the Romantics conceived it; as a great overarching, overreaching, attempt to encompass the Multiverse.
The philosopher must be a voracious, divine animal; - a descendant of the killer ape, he jettisons himself into the solar system and beyond.
Fermi's Paradox states that if extra-terrestials existed they would be here now ... hear now ... hear hear ...

The last Spaceship on Venus
Silent Venus,
Sister Venus,
Cosmic vessel,
My Earthling brethren
Desire with you to speak,
And upon your red sod, to tread.
You draw me upwards,
O Crimson lady.
Dear Venus,
Make a sound or three,
So that we, may,
To your dunes voyage,
And join ye, once more, in cosmic
Cacophany.

Ascent of Sky Mountain
Everything tells you ‘no’ and blocks your stumble.
‘Better to stay at home and avoid adventure.
These climes are not for you, nor can you climb so,
To reach such giddy heights, where the air will be
All too thin, and the silence will deafen you,
And the light, blind you, and the sleet bind you.
You will be deaf, dumb and blind as you try to climb’.
No matter, climb I will, for I know that there is something
Beyond these senses, and that there are heights beyond heights,
And sounds beyond sounds, and scents beyond scents,
And sights beyond sights, and beyonds beyond beyonds,
And ascents beyond ascents ...
Ad infinitum.
