Poem #5
.
as I lift off in my rocketship to
the beautiful skies that always seem blue
the powerful engune pulls on my back
and everypart of my body seems pinched by a tack
.
the sky falls away from my object of view
and instead are the stars shimmering with blue
in my rocketship I sit, and gaze at the stars
and wonder if this view is on mars
.
I will turn back to my work eventually
and begin my long trip to mars colony
but for now I will sit, and gaze at the stars
and hope they're not missing me, home, on mars.
