space lamentation number 4c/draft 1

space lamentation number 4c/draft 1

fiction
edward w pritchard

Silent be my wagon bumping along rutted pioneerless trails

Becalmed am I, aship windless seas far from the cape of good hope

Friendless in perpetual night, blinded am I in astarless darkness

Loneliness accelerates alone, daily salt brings sudden death

Sadness times sorrow, the moon is my pillow, space dust my final resting place

Softly silent melancholy melody drifting from earth;  recollection rekindles rebirth

Spheres in motion produce trade winds and I begin to drift homeward.
