Starship Human
When a hole so vast
All recollection of gravity be long lost
When atmosphere’s touch
When sudden flares of solar light
Startles so to trigger a hurricane
What red-stained firmament

As I acclimate
To say that so much stardust
So far
Left me dazed
And more than underwhelmed
Would be the best
Truth
So far
Only Now
Just fly on us
The breath and the birds
Breath
