659

in no-place space again

for the bug

here I am other end of your day

it's like we've made shiftwork of the world

we sleep through things

but they still happen

I'm upside down to you

you're standing on your head

or someone's

heads and tails

we're just where we've happened

not to say unplanned

you might simply imagine

a fall through the world

perhaps some technical difficulties?

the day indoors is any season

why not moon or Mars?

one day it won't be so far different

it's not the head ever gets round it

still one can be

curled like Jules Verne cosy reading

but no, I'm really here

other-siding, far as you'll go

without stepping off

all the fiction's science now

we should expect that more

how we speak in this magic box

we write with light

each to our own – how could I explain

that to Charles Dickens?

it was hard enough

for mum and dad

soon it will be the rocket goes up

and the world goes round

the rockets drops down

and we're home

I guess we're getting ready for that

myself, I have been through the 'easyjet' queue

with the aching knee

now I am coiled in the can

and ready to spring

I'm strapped into the seat-for-far

ready for take off now
