Hoist up the sail
Catch the suns
And we will fly through
the ocean of stars.
Across the yawning void
Heed the ancestors call
As we see what we hear and we haul
We will capture the light
On this vast sea of night
And we’ll rule the ocean of stars.

Go and Catch a Falling Star
By John Donne, 1633
Go and catch a falling star,
Get with child a mandrake root,
Tell me where all past years are,
Or who cleft the devil’s foot,
Teach me to hear mermaids singing,
Or to keep off envy’s stinging,
And find
What wind
Serves to advance an honest mind.

Your Orbit
I was pulled in your direction
A mix of interest and affection
Between my inertia and your gravity
Now beset by introspection
All I have is circumspection
As I watch the world below me endlessly.

Captured the Stars in You
I captured the stars in you
I wondered if I could do
It here with you so near
I captured the stars in you
Didn’t care if you wanted me to
When I captured the stars in you -
I’m Dying in the Winter
I’m dying in the winter
Slate sky and battered windows
Are the only companions
I can find today -
Unquiet Grave – FAWM2022
The Boreas made the gentlest noise,
As she struck the planet red
I never had but one true love
In a capsule, she lies dead.

The Butterflies Are Doing Ok
They said
To write to you
They would send it today
And you would get it
Though you’re quite far away
I don’t know what exactly that
I want to say…
Um
The butterflies are doing ok.

We are waiting
Buckles tight

Note the numbers
