Spaceship
CRASH-
landing in a midnight sea-
this empty planet
so far from me
patience awaits
but frustration merges-
an alien
extra-terrestrial so familiar to me
I get close

spaceship going down
air dissipates
one final blink
ship off course- glimpse of the moon
now I'm a twinkling
the star you can't take your eye off
the star that should have been
