New Section 2

the voyage has just begun
excitement shakes through my brain
silence rattles the bones
there may not be much
i do not need much
where i'm going i will not be missed
good riddance to that unfaithful woman
and forget that guy she's with now
life on mars will be different
a bold new frontier
waiting to be discovered
open space, quiet and inviting
empowering, strong nothingness
finally free of progress's judicial machines
free of not being good enough, or smart enough, or polite enough for her fancy parents
finally a world not founded on anyone's sacred land or ancestral burial ground
shivering, shaking silence
endless time enveloping me
excitement racing stillness
breathe slowly and
fall into gentle sleep
