THE CLOSEST THING TO LIGHT

This is the closest thing to light that I have found

It brings some tears of joy as I look at it

If you search Cone Nebula you’ll find it there

This iteration is my sense of it

I am the most earthbound spirit that I know

Just lately I surmise the reason why

I would blown away with excitation

Were I to function as some psychics do

Or as some tell us of dimensions they have seen

I live from day to day and keep my senses open

I see these colors change but I’m part color blind

Others cannot see it — compensation — never mind
