   What do you call lines on a map that move from side to side?   
      
   Looking at a map of some, so-called, nation-states   
   of mind over time, some geographical areas appear to grow,   
   while others disappear, all the while the actual land-mass   
   might move very little above or below sea level.   
      
   What I call these areas on maps, that let other areas on maps   
   possess them, is being possessed by nation-states of mind.   
      
   States of mind vary.   
      
   Being in a global state of mind, I see your pale blue dot   
   and watch from far out man near Saturn.   
      
   Surface dwellers can be the most fun to magnify   
   under glass slides, kinda like a pair a miceum   
   being chased by a cat being chased by   
   a dog in a cartoon show.
