‘Blood is thicker,’ they’ll whisper as they’ll
try to paint me as just another stranger to keep you
from slipping out of their fingers. And they’re right, I’m an
astronaut seeking black holes and unknown treasure. Stability is
tunnel vision and I want to see everything. You see that too, it’s
in your nature. As much as blood is thicker, you’re meant
to witness more than the inside of their shelter.

Witnessing blood,
following
space,
too
jump throughout
a black-hole
to go
where
only
one does know…

Inspirational, you’ll see, watch out for a pingback. I was looking for an inspiration on how to convey the news re humankinds disregard for nature in general. The ban on hunting in Alaska being lifted also fired my inspiration, thanks to you both.
