All of your relations Acquaintances, Lovers, Ancestors, Stand buried in the rock Which you left for the stars. All of your dreams To be anything but A passenger of exploration Hurdling towards the stars. All of your advancement From fire to fission Brought you to the edge To the unknown light of the stars. All of your history From nomadic to communist conquest, Dwindles to bygone feuds of nothing Specked with glimmers of the stars. All of your prayer Inquisitions and moral apostasy, Matters not to the mirrors of Fate Refracting illumination, reflecting life Parsecs of attainable depth, here we are.

The Cosmonauts of the Soyuz
All of your relations Acquaintances, Lovers, Ancestors, Stand buried in the rock Which you left for the stars. All of your dreams To be anything but A passenger of exploration Hurdling towards the stars. All of your advancement From fire to fission Brought you to the edge To the unknown light of the stars. All of your history From nomadic to communist conquest, Dwindles to bygone feuds of nothing Specked with glimmers of the stars. All of your prayer Inquisitions and moral apostasy, Matters not to the mirrors of Fate Refracting illumination, reflecting life Parsecs of attainable depth, here we are.
