Chrissie Morris Brady Poet Blank verse

Space Or Spaced Out

In Space or Spaced Out

Bones grow feeble without gravity
This is a serious matter, not to be taken lightly
Blood fails to reach the brain
We must bear this in mind
Space cannot be navigated by the light headed
The semi conscious, on a journey with such a faint map
Think on this seriously, it is not a joke
Spaceships lost in the heavens is a hellish consequence
Sentient beings drifting half conscious is senseless
Concentrate your thoughts so that we do not scatter
Debris in the galaxies, cleverly made
And stupidly lost.

Beata Agustin October 16, 2025 at 12:13 AM Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Maurice Rigoler February 7, 2016 at 12:34 PM I have reasonable doubts Man will ever achieve space travel, long-distance, I mean. I think of the millions of dollars spent trying to achieve it, while millions more on earth could benefit from that money. I am a science buff, so your poem appealed to me very much. Best to you. And thanks for the stop by. / M Chrissie Morris Brady February 7, 2016 at 12:46 PM Thank you! I hope the contradictions and word play appealed to you as well.

Mike Shoemaker January 24, 2016 at 8:57 PM Cleverly made and stupidly lost. Such is life and death it seems. Thanks. Chrissie Morris Brady January 25, 2016 at 9:19 AM Life is not always stupidly lost - I don't think so anyway. The poem is word play and contradictions if you hadn't realised. Thank you for reading.

Andrea Dietrich January 21, 2016 at 4:08 PM something different to think about when thinking of space travel. It had not entered my mind before!! Chrissie Morris Brady January 21, 2016 at 4:47 PM LOL. It is mostly word play, but inspired by a passing comment my brother in law made...
