INVISIBLE COSMIC WANDERERS

There are many of us
Invisible cosmic wanderers
Dwelling in peace
Under the stars.
We keep quiet
About our mystic condition.
To formulate it
Would mean to diminish it.
How can you say the unsayable?
Through words which are so square and insular?

I listen to the crickets.
I watch the majestic stars.
I know what I know.
I don't need
To distort my knowledge
By describing it.
I continue my cosmic meanderings
I enjoy the conspiracy of silence.
