Look out and there is sun,
And further still a line of stars
Called constellation, bright.

Further on, beyond
The emptiness of inner space,
Pin points of light
Grow large and spin like tops,
Loosing flecks of catherine wheels
To shine life in to this void.

Gravity and time do not exist
Out there in gigantic emptiness.
Here, with feet planted sure
On green and pleasant land,
Where apples know their place,
Boats that sailed the seven seas
And founded lands afar.
Home of men and man-o-war,
Kings and queens of great renown,
Churches built by knighted souls,
And telescopes to plan
Escape through dark black holes.

And clock,
The centre of lifes equation.
Nought line meridian
The creation,
A time warp curled,
Where man may stand
In East and West.
The centre of the world.
