Lucite Helicopter to Australia

This helicopter
in which you are riding
is entirely clear.
Lucite
Sturdy
You can see all the gears,
and the folding waves
of the lonely Pacific below.

In this helicopter,
you can see Freddie Mercury standing in the roomy cabin
this is a large model lucite helicopter)
and Brian May heading back to the cockpit.
He's an astrophysicist and rock star,
so why not a helicopter pilot too.

In this helicopter
made of lucite
for your viewing pleasure,
you can see birds
miniature breaching whales
fully arched rainbows
and towering banks of storm clouds
but no galaxies
or even a glimpse of Jupiter
because you've landed in Australia.

You are informed
of a mandatory two month stay.
Fine but ...
your cat!
Who will take care of her for that long time?
This is a nightmare!

No, It's not.
You're awake;
kitty to the left of your pillow

This helicopter
stays on your mind all day.
if it can bring Freddie Mercury back to life,
surely it can go backward and forward in time.
Surely it can hover over a black hole
just long enough
to see a forbidden light.
