The Universe of Missing Mass John Sacelli
when i was a child i went to mass. didn’t like it much. our father which art in heaven . . is there really witch art in heaven? do they cast spells, burn sinners in latin? was afraid, didn’t like it much when i was a young man left the church, joined the masses revolution of the masses, by the masses for the masses didn’t care for that either mass movements, mass murder scared me too

mass, masses, massed armies, fortunes amassed, mass hysteria, mass extinctions, mass illusion
it is my time to be untied to be untide i will not cheat you i will not cheat the earth matter, mass i will leave my body atoms, ashes then leave my bodhi leave my bodhisattva with all these young masses
oh, i know, it has a purpose mass - held us here while we learned held us together
i will be what physics, churches nations cannot find the universe of missing mass
now an old man and the subject is still mass the mass of the earth which binds us here gravity, the grave

while we grew the masses did the work built farms and forms cities and societies
