I am dreaming
I’m free
All the weights of
Modern life
Have been released
I am flying
Up far into
The wide sky
Clouds bright white
Sky blue
I am floating
Into darkest space
With Stephen Hawking
His theories
I embrace
I am playing bongos
With Richard Feynman
So carefree, foolish
Dreaming
I am free man
I am talking
To Carl Sagan
About cosmos and infinity
Mesmerised
I am taken
I am thinking
My mind aches
What is it all about?
Where am I going ?
Please put on the brakes!
I am speeding
Past planets
Asteroids, space junk
Gazing far out
At passing comets
I am gazing
Back at Earth
A tiny speck
Fading in darkness
Of no worth
I am heading
Straight towards
A supermassive black hole
Scared shitless
Lost for words
I am spaghettified
Is this the end?
Or a new beginning?
Who knows?
Shall I transcend?

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
