Homecoming

riding a comet through where the Sun
electrifies atoms as ions become
currents of power flowing between
the Sun and the planets in a great stream...

surfing these currents electrically
flying by Saturn and on just to see
Pluto and Sedna so far away
where Proxima beckons to end my stay...

into the darkness far far beyond
the solar system which I leave from
faster and faster through plasma induced
faster than lightspeed I am seduced

by the sensations of moving through space
propelled by its power to race and to race
arriving quite quickly to stop in a rush
in Proxima B's celestial hush...

Earth-like with oceans, air fit to breathe
islands with mountains, I do not leave
this is the world where I will stay
home from my travels to so far away...
