Why your shadow came to seek my love?

I want to meet the real you.

I meant the distance to travel between my heart and your heart when I said "space expedition."

Why can't everyone like everyone else?

We are human beings, so can't.. can't.. can't..

When I sense that the idea which is hatching in my mind

seems a carbon-copy of someone else's,

I realise I am on the wrong track and immediately abandon it-

not to do this is dishonesty and hypocrisy which I can't live with.

Wood fire smoke triggers memories
ancient the ancestors first fires,
pop and crackling, spit and hissing out the damp.
To sit around and be tribal faces lit up
a first society in the Milky Way
warming bones and warning other creatures
to stay away.
