Baby's First Steps (Ending)
The ISS is oscillating, gently but constantly. I am tethered in the Soyuz descent module. It's docked at the far end of the Russian Zvezda module, mothballed and neglected. For decades since the 1960s, these old Russian ships had been our Crew Return Vehicles – our lifeboats – until SpaceX's Dragon programme superceded them.

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."

So profound and true. Loved your Haiku!
Sad and relevant, and all the sadder because it’s relevant Well done
That’s pretty dystopian, Addison, but I loved it for the depth and form.
