when one sees from guiding star
all world’s problems seems so far
away, and so infinitesimally small
they hardly even exist at all
so if one thinks something’s drastic
bubble-wrap the issue up in plastic
take it to the nearest full moon
where it will minimise very soon
at the other scale of earthly things
dispense with very tiny feelings
tissue-culture analysis can show
if minute living-cells die or grow
why waste precious energy and time
on emotional blips not worth a dime
gather real resources and only expend
them for worthwhile means and end
