Love Poems

	Pioneer I am racing like stars from you You who gave me the slingshot I am searching what you call "The Heavens". No firmament Has revealed itself to me as yet. I chatter to you with radio talk From day to night to day to night Each planet I see grabs me tight And throws me like space dust To the next. Neptune was especially Skilled at that. I am expecting nothing Pluto mumbled something about loneliness And utter, utter blackness as he lanced me From him. Before this string between us Snaps with the strain of time and space I would like to know: will you mourn me? © David Incoll 2001
