There is nothing like floating through the infinite
sans
a space helmet.
It is like being in love
and floating through some body that is not your own,
without a shield.
Stars and words,
black holes and challenges
come at you
and threaten to,
in the case of Outer Space,
make your head explode,
and in the case of love,
cut you open.
But either result is exciting,
much more exciting than waiting for a bus,
or filling out paperwork.
In this life, I'd rather be a Space Cat,
or at least be in Love.
