Saturn over Seamus’s Roof 3am

~

Saturn looked so close last night

unusually to the left 

and lower than the moon,

as if sitting on Seamus’s roof,

at 3am it made me think, that

when the end comes and all 

chance of animal and human 

life is extinguished,

whether by cataclysmic event

or our own infantile foolishness,

three things will remain for

future exploratory

extra-terrestrial pioneers

to consider, 

Termites, Marmite and Lego, 

the three building blocks for 

a new civilization
