tell me then, how you know of such a place?

death has not yet touched your face

so tell me how you know

you have not seen this place

tell me how you know

the wonders and sounds of space

i have met with the stars

we raced them to mars

we are light years apart

yet i heard every remark

oh it is a fine thing

to talk amongst the stars

and i raced callisto

towards the eclipse o’

my flower

tell me how you know!

saturn, mars, pluto

tell me how you know

of these tales

from my home?

About the Creator

Brambling, atypical logorrhoea that really materialise in the form of hatching worms. Or stars.
