I froze up on the staircase, staring at space much like a jigsaw falling in place. I was high and dry like a lotus flower in bloom. Lost in the fog as I tried to sail to the moon. I was searching for the subterranean homesick alien on Planet Telex to ask him the million dollar question he spoke in codex. So I’ll never find out the answer for the talk show host just like how the spooks won’t give up the ghost.

This is my third poem created by combining song titles from the artist. I believe that each title contains a certain story within itself. Therefore, I took certain titles and created a story out of it. This band is Radiohead. Enjoy.
