Running on Empty
• 03/21/23 at 10:26PM •Running on empty,
no relief in sight.
No inspiration,
nothing, left or right.
Frustrations are many,
emotions being pulled,
not being tugged,
mind confused, mulled.
Running on empty,
no relief in sight.
No inspiration,
nothing, left or right.
Frustrations are many,
emotions being pulled,
not being tugged,
mind confused, mulled.
In the land of the wicked,
can the saintly survive?
Pay close attention to detail,
your life, will be alive.
With opportunities, many,
of the Godless, we see,
will not understand,
how good life could be.
NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day:
Can dust be beautiful? Yes, and it can also be useful. The Taurus molecular cloud has several bright stars, but it is the dark dust that really draws attention. The pervasive dust has waves and ripples and makes picturesque dust bunnies, but perhaps more importantly, it marks regions where interstellar gas is dense enough to gravitationally contract to form stars. In the image center is a light cloud lit by neighboring stars that is home not only to a famous nebula, but to a very young and massive famous star. Both the star, T Tauri, and the nebula, Hind's Variable Nebula, are seen to vary dramatically in brightness -- but not necessarily at the same time, adding to the mystery of this intriguing region. T Tauri and similar stars are now generally recognized to be Sun-like stars that are less than a few million years old and so still in the early stages of formation. The featured image spans about four degrees not far from the Pleiades star cluster, while the featured dust field lies about 400 light-years away.

This lost soul,
didn't mean to pry,
or ask questions,
beginning with why.
Sorry for my question,
I am curious, too,
because I enjoy
talking to you.
Why do I worry,
for others, like you,
when I see verbal abuse,
of you and the work you do?
There are some people,
I shan't name any too,
who are rude, inconsiderate,
often yelling at you.
You don't get paid enough,
to take any abuse.
Management, should step in.
There should not be any excuse.
As residents, you pay money,
to be cared for, too,
this doesn't excuse rudeness,
to those waiting on you.
It's suggested you grow up,
change your ways or move.
Those working here do it
for money but also love.
I await you, dear one,
nothing more to say,
except I love you.
Have a good day.
If I write
from my heart,
the words
in my head,
will I
be honest,
and say,
this instead?
Writing
the truth,
is difficult,
to do,
when I've
lost you.
You are,
no longer
the person
I married.
An image,
a empty shell.
My soul
is afire,
in this
living hell.
Lost and alone,
in life's wilderness.
Searching for you.
Where, I must guess,
Looking in every cranny,
even your hiding place.
My search continues looking
for your smiling face.
Look in the places,
above and beyond.
It is where,
she will be found.
NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day:
Are your eyes good enough to see the Crab Nebula expand? The Crab Nebula is cataloged as M1, the first on Charles Messier's famous list of things which are not comets. In fact, the Crab is now known to be a supernova remnant, an expanding cloud of debris from the explosion of a massive star. The violent birth of the Crab was witnessed by astronomers in the year 1054. Roughly 10 light-years across today, the nebula is still expanding at a rate of over 1,000 kilometers per second. Over the past decade, its expansion has been documented in this stunning time-lapse movie. In each year from 2008 to 2022, an image was produced with the same telescope and camera from a remote observatory in Austria. The sharp, processed frames even reveal the dynamic energetic emission surrounding the rapidly spinning pulsar at the center. The Crab Nebula lies about 6,500 light-years away toward the constellation of the Bull (Taurus).

Ernesto Roque Sabato, (1911 - 2011) Argentine novelist, essayist, painter and physicist. He earned a doctorate in physics and started teaching theoretical physics.

The hours are early,
you lay next to me.
I feel you breathing,
it's where I want to be.
