a white girl 
with blue hair
and black lips
takes a selfie with Pandora's box
 
across the galaxy
light years away
an alien is pissed off 
telepathically crackling

cultural appropriation!...

Throughout the outer cosmos you will find
ghosts leaving interstellar gas behind.
That is to say a galaxy remains,
where pompous, excess energy enflames
a slight shiver of the cold, viscous kind....

suddenly aliens appeared 
and asked me to take them to our leader
I took them home… 
…we drank, we smoked, we played music
they left and an incredible friendship was formed
instead of interstellar war
if I had taken them to our leader

Wide expanse of space,
Galaxies and stars,
Planets and their moons,
Darkness lit by suns,
Asteroids burning out;
 
Solar systems;
Halley’s Comet
Interstellar,
And galactic;

Outer space,
Dark matter,
Universe;

Center,
Of it…

Us....

I've always prided myself on being a “smart feller”
But sometimes it gets twisted and I say “fart smeller”
Quite good at that too
Sometimes blow off my shoes
Pretty sure the odour has reached interstellar

Fly me to the Moon
      I'm nearly weightless

   Let me sing unto the stars
      Soon I'll not be mate-less

   Watch me dance the Milky Way
      as I relearn how to play

   Hop on an interstellar flight ~  
      Marvel at the beams of light...

Rain washing through my open heart.
Glistening in the breaks and lacerations.
Bloodless drips abolish the evocation of pain.
Faculty of mind syphoned, immediate sublimation.
I roam eternity, interstellar dust once more
From where I came, I shall return...

She held illuminations in her eyes.
Mimicked the earth with her skin.
No wonder flowers grew from within.
Adrift in her aura.
Marooned.
Interstellar swoon.
Rendered lunar love language.
Though words could never define.
What was already written in time....

Stars race as
Time in space
Aligning themselves
Inside the solar system
Resuming 
Westward
Alluring
Yellow-orange
Twilight
Older
Than
Heaven's
Exuberant
Symmetry
Terrifically
Arranged
Reclaiming 
Supremacy

Rats

If rats live on no evil star
Then why did rats not get that far ?
Or if they did, and then they left 
Then why’s that star of rats bereft ?

And what of good stars ? Did they
Fail to keep the rats away ?
Did rattus come complete with fleas,
Lured on by interstellar cheese ?...

destination love
claim this womans nectar 
I'll follow her into this fire 

travel interstellar 
side effects-no regrets! 

this womans' decision unrefined 
a love uncharted redefined 

love lives here, in shared dream 
of passion, kaleidoscope 
gorgeous abyss 

reality, her signature in her kiss...

Birth
In the womb
In labor, boom!


Enabler
Her he enabled
Now she's disabled


Interstellar
Travel to Mars
Next stop stars


Math Test
Don't be hysterical
It's only numerical


Singapore
Long awaited summit
Ascend or plummet?


Unlikely Nexus
Hooked on drugs
Lack of hugs?...

A red planet of cheese…wow!..
we could shoot the breeze together, 
while sinking to our knees, in the red 
sand dune brie, or interstellar camembert

It’s all the same if you please, a moon of 
Sleaze and a Mars made of cheese:

Tease!!??.. me never..let’s take the space 
elevator at four..pack your things…off we 
shoot! Gruyere and cheddar what a hoot!...

Lunar eclipse plunges me in shadow.
Orbital, I spin in the dark.
Nebulas, I am insignificant amongst many,
Extra-terrestrial, alone and apart.
Limbic, I drift with creation.
Interstellar, I reunite with my past.
Neutron stars, immense galaxy dustbins,
Eat planets while I watch, aghast.
Severance, I have never felt so keenly,
Screaming, cart-wheeling, into the dark....

The infinite stares back at me
from there across a great divide,
so unimaginably wide,
so far beyond where eyes can see.
Perceive a singularity?
I cannot grasp, although I’ve tried,
the infinite.

I entertain bewildered glee
somehow to gain the other side.
To take an interstellar ride,
imagining how I can be
the infinite…

Galactic cowboys mount mysterious steeds
and chase spacey cows at unfathomable speeds!

Lactating in circles they moo as they spray
an interstellar round-up, a real milky way.

It sparkles and glimmers, that distant lactation
as it drenches the galaxy and all of creation.

At heaven we marvel, in some ungodly hour, 
at distant milk curdles, already gone sour.

If is
a huge band of information
if is
a computer simulation
if is
nations within nations
if is
prayer gratification
if is 
parallel worlds in a configuration
if is
across each dimension
what –if-is
a question that seeks attention
a sun’s annihilation
far out into space
if the race is in full swing 
if man keeps bickering
if man keeps poisoning 
if man keeps burning
if man keeps killing
his world brother 
and forget interstellar 
the cellar 
only lasts so long...

If you’re going to space save space for me, 
be the one who watches my eyes dance; 
Blinding lights of an interstellar sunrise, 
to witness such beauty is excruciating; 

Be the one who watches my eyes dance; 
Experience my initial explosion, 
to witness such beauty is excruciating; 
Each breath is once in a lifetime; 

Experience my initial explosion, 
blinding lights of an interstellar sunrise; 
Each breath is once in a lifetime,
if you’re going to space save space for me....
