Lukas Ficklin Poet Concrete

Concrete Dreams

flight	
			        mission controls
			      checked and bound 
		       	     for another blackhole
		        engines prepped and fired up
		      as eyes of wonder begin to shut	
                 cloud-shaped sheep are hopping fences 
	       numbering each as countdown commences
		 Announcement: Houston, we have a go!
  Launch  -  the coordinates passing Star Nebula row  -  G-force
  floating  - flying through infinity outside my window -  gloating
		 Warp speed in time not throughout space
		 collect all data to save the human race!!!
		 A concrete plan within this willowy plane
		 circling freely through the twirling stains  
                 I will miss deep space when I land again.
		  
			 Entering the atmosphere
			    where music appears 
				       beep
				       beep
				       beep
				       beep
