lighter than air | Poem

 
lighter than air


the fuse sputters
runs down the time 

until we 

big hair 

big band 

big bang 

a curious thing 

when the boson sings 

electric dreams 

of perfect gases

boundless blue 

all I can beleive 

awash in waves of light 

all I can eat

drink 

sleep 

think 

pedigreedy 

perigee whiz 

wonderful waves 

wonderful 

echoes

the star ignites 

in perfect love 

in perfect harmony 

while we watch 

lighter than air 

brighter than where 

we were 

lighter than air
