a lot to be said for traveling in the evening light #moon #allart #iphoneography @love_belfast @ArtPhotogRRaphy: image via Jonathan Murphy @ForMurPhoto, 1 May 2014
Say what you will.
No regrets
Beyond the necessary
Lies
A better tomorrow
All your yesterdays
Executive class
Mindfulness
And all the rest
Of the best of what's left
When the launch comes
Back down
As you're listening
For your heart beat
For your heart beat
The numbers aren't moving
And nobody likes that.
The music plays
Even though the numbers are broken.
Stop looking
So disappointed.
Tonight, in the evil
Moonlight
The ancestors are with us.

Perfectly beautiful, Tom. All of it.
ditto what Hazen wrote
Humble thanks to esteemed elders Hazen and MIchael forever young in the contingent moonshine light... what else can we do but continue...

I love this journey from the evening train to the (Soviet) moon colony to Morton, Mississippi.

Really nice poem.
David and Terry, vast thanks, you beauties you.
Neglecting the opportunity to desecrate the moon by colonizing it might possibly constitute the one small dumb step mankind has not managed to take.
Or so I thought until two days ago, when I read an article on one of those triumphalist tech sites in which it was proposed that mineral extraction on the moon might answer all "our" future energy needs.
Duh, you mean the planet isn't already powered by green cheese?
