ART AND POETRY / beyond no return

micro 8.jpg
within space debris

beyond no return

my daughter puts stickers
of Malibu Barbie
all over my helmet

a reinforced hose
connects to the back
for breathable air

my magnifier lens
with LED lights
turn Venus brighter

light years away
I have fallen in love
with things I imagine

garlic potatoes
and veal scaloppini
are sucked from a tube

I sleep like a tortoise
ten thousand years
without blinking

the ping of a xylophone note
like ivory cracking
restarts my heart

my wife and her boyfriend
are aging much faster
than me

I write in my journal
then transmit it home
today I offer forgiveness
