Supersonic Skydive Tell me, what's your helmet like? Can you hear the roar of breaking barriers of sound? Or is it silent in your dome Have they built you like a home A cradle for the jumping few Who chose to do as daring do? Supersonic Skydive, Tell me, what's the view there like? Can you see the rounding planet Arching back in every stretch? And do the stars look different here Beyond the blinking atmosphere, And when you rushing, sink away, When do you find the blue of day? Supersonic Skydive So lucky to be so alive And as you plummet to the ground, Tell me, do you look up, or down?

A poem for a momentous occasion in human history. Mmm, juicy. :]
