DOLPHINS IN SPACE SUITS



this happened, you turn into the Moon
cold and mute

your arms opened to catch the light
a female wave

she falls asleep into your arms
a full body, what to do with her?

behind a strong window pane
you lay her down on a lunar bed

with guardians, dolphins in space suits
swimming in little gravity

you walk the corridors of Luna Base
find poems of men dead long ago

you throw them away, the poems
it's just paper anyway

lady Light in her dreams
her eyes going left and right, REM

what can the brain do, but to go along
yesterday in a cave, tomorrow on the Moon

lady Light her skin is pale, white
like the fur of Mister Rabbit who lives here

the dolphins in their space suits
obviously envious, hey, Mister Rabbit!?

how did you get here, on the Moon?
I am the Man, says the Rabbit

well, why not
you yourself now just a moon

  1. I consider this lull between posts to be a good thing, of course, but....what's new? Hmmmmmmmm? La Belle Lune is beautiful, but dusty & cold & airless, shining only in reflected light that is sooooooooo old. Enjoy your respite of, well of what? Have Fun!
