In Space

In space

You paint with light

Comets trace wavy outlines

Asteroids polish pigments

Ghost particles sing arias announcing

Butterflies transformed to starships

Neutrinos muster armies of angels

Into dense radiant columns

Chasing light from dark

Bursting the hearts of suns

Heated plasma hot as hellfire

Briskly sculpts magnetospheres

Skies of colors not yet seen

Except by quantized eyes

Pupils trained by thought

Tuned by time

To sing for the spheres

You hug the highway of lost love

Climb the high wall of missed beauty

Past the stellar center where

Stars manufacture stars

Heat turns night into light

Energy foments momentum

Converting emptiness to canvas

Birthplace of everything

Nursery of nothing

Two sides of a single coin

That spends all its worth buying

Life’s unwitting intelligence

Saying goodbye to itself, yet

Still hoping for an audience

In space

Everything is possible

Possibility creates everything

It just needs your touch and

Two words

Start

Now
