no voices
disturb my ears
no eyes looking
back at me
or at my back
no questions
the relief of silence
cannot be measured
until the echos
            ...end.
Find bright mornings where you land
bring focus sharp
around the colors
dancing in star's light...
you will not see me
no glad sun or open sky to greet my eyes
another time
just waiting
in cold comfort
far away.

In my dreams I smelled a flower
I danced in the warm light
my feet
naked to the soil
and we sang...
I woke up singing

the ghost of your fingers still
entwined
with mine.
I have no hands
to touch me
but my own

If I could reach and hold
blind stars
in my hand
and joy
to feel them dancing.

...to know their dance and
understand
within the dance
will be an answer.

 

Lonliness comes from a far back fear
from a time beyond
memories.

now the darkened void
must serve
for your face
and your voice...

the hiss of radiation
on my hull
is almost welcome
in this silence
while I wait.

I am waiting for
entropy
to settle on me
in heavy silence
absorbing bones
and breath
and beating heart
before all action ends

feel it sifting in
a dust too fine for filters
too large
to comprehend.
Limitations
as I pace from wall to wall
passing alcoves
well designed
to conceal the narrow passage
which confines me
Limitations
I gave as reason for embarking
outward
seeking fortune in the
void
Limitations
to my lifespan now confront me
as I pace from wall
to wall
passing alcoves not designed
to prevent the
Limitations
that mortality
demands
Technology prevails
and wisdom trails
behind it
avarice leads poverty
control produces strife.
I left
in search of simple truth
now finding truth
...so simple
that life itself
flees it's face
attempting
to deny the fact
by any means
including
the creation
of technology.

screen cleared
awaiting input
mind cleared without
a thought

imagine what potential
lurks
behind this
blankness
to pounce on all
expression
and carry it
away.
