When a wisp of galaxy decides
It would like to try
Being something smaller—
Just a stretch of land
A curlicue of island
Where people can walk
And past which boats can sail
Experiencing existence
For once, on a smaller scale
An e-zine about spaceships, aliens, science, memory, motherhood, magic, and cats.
