Space 1 & 2

A poem in space.     September 2019

Space is really really big,
going to the next star,
is amazingly far,
do ya dig?

It aint no simple joy ride,
to blast off super fast,
is a problem we past,
now we just glide.

Weightless in space you will be,
unless gravity by spin,
you make for the win,
of a healthy you and me.

We need a lot of fuel to get going,
acceleration also feels like gravity,
it gives you lots of delta vee,
but save some fuel for slowing.







Poem in Space 2.      October 2019

Looking at the edge of space,
a lonely member of the human race,
wishing to fly from this place?

A great expanse of man,
that is our hope and plan.
Being better than we are,
over there on that star.

Clean and happy our new world will be.
Yes, just you wait and see.
Hate shall not follow us there,
poverty replaced with what is fare.

Can this dream come true?
Can we build something new?
Or will our problems follow along,
the weak subjugated by the strong.

Looking up to the distant stars,
but we haven't even reached Mars.
Will we ever leave this place?
Can we improve the human race?
