THIS THING WE CALL SPACE

Space is not just space

You can call it an ace

Or even a race

Term it matter

Term it substance

Even name it form.

It`s both concrete and abstract

It`s here and there

It`s everywhere and nowhere

It`s masculine and it`s feminine.

It`s cosmic

It`s nebulous

It`s compact

It`s scattered

It`s little

It`s large

It`s drifting

It`s stable.

It`s filled with the moon, the stars and constellations

It holds our destiny

It contains galaxies

It spins odes

It chants dirges

It brings light

It spells darkness.

It`s a new world

It`s an old world

It`s day

It`s night.

We use it

We abuse it

We respect it

We invade it.

It`s man

It`s God.
