astronaut
the astronaut
thuds back
to earth
and
wanders
how does he
talk about
the feel of
mars
what it's like
to sleep and
wake under
the stars
how to play
golf
on
moons
about the underground
waterworlds in
other
galaxies
what the sun
looks like
always
risen
and
the exquisite
silence
and
peace
in
space
can all this be shared,
or is his mind itself
some astronaut
an alien satellite
orbiting
this
reality
enclosed in glass
and separated
by suit
question mark.
i stretch out i don't see my hands i see white puffy gloves i move awkwardly to touch my face instead i feel
glass

kudos...love the way you make each word it's own thought in a beat riddled sea of pointed edges :)
My dark knight,
I bet the night in the space is deep and tranquil
Where one can sleep for a change...
There,
Where the knight can rest and be protected
As many suns and many moons watch over him..
Hope you've managed to bring back some pearls from the outer space.. :)
J,
remembering a boy who dreamt of being an astronaut
