My Planet

Instead of a ticket to mars, 
I like one to my own planet.
It would be Goldilock’s right,
with love as far as the horizon.
beautiful as my best imaginings.

It would have conformable chairs,
creatures of my rainbow bridge,  
theaters with the best movies and plays,
schools fostering the best of imagination
creating great philosopher and poets.


There be no geography and thus 
no governments, no  politics     
no  need for police and  prisons. 
And since there is no crime, 
only peace, there be no fighting,
and definitely no wars.

But, without you, my love,
it would never truly be right.
