Aquatic Astronauts
AQUATIC ASTRONAUTS
beneath blue depths they train
it feels a lot like home no gravity
you see
moon shine and ripples
floating bloated bodies
and airtight head gear
of steel
here they speak universal
truths
vernacular bubbles
in claustrophobic
booths
delusional dialogue
hydra hallucination
days of depraved
youths
brains strain blended in bends
above harsh daylight hammers
pound
buried under static gales
where sanity is lost and
found
dispersed authenticity
drowns whilst spoken universal
truths
rest calm in underwater
booths
transcending
tranquil peace
resounds
(Astronauts train underwater)
