Disassemble the Vacuum

disassemble the vacuum
the stars have dirtied
orbits come to a standstill
glitter lost to dusty decay

black holes refuse to function
tunnels are clogged
no longer passages for time
stellar debris and discarded string

I ask you
what in the dust devil
is that smell

the matrix is scorched and burned
and so … disassemble the vacuum

it has lost its power
the pressure differential flattened
the flow lost its direction
lost its light up and glow

disassemble the vacuum
sweep up the slate
wipe the tapestry clean
and beat out the rug

don’t pester me with coughing

just disassemble the vacuum
and reassemble it, part by part
maybe it will work again

That method worked for me once. Maybe we can do that with our political juggernaut?

Alas ... it seems one can only disassemble their own vacuum and as such keep their own string in good order. But it is enough. Things are unraveling as they will ... just hard for us humans to see beyond our own entanglements ... I can't believe I just used that word. LOL. Shout out to Jada Pinkett Smith ... if she don't want Will; I'll take him. He won me over with One Strange Rock. It competes with Cosmos for awesome science show ever.
