Thalia:
the ship is dark but on-board
sleeps a traveler
who will perform - who may change mythology
he carries song and something else
machines now give him life
Isolier:
1
confusion
awareness comes into focus
as I return from disturbing dreams
one by one
neurons - long in suspension
animate
and recreate - reality
2
who am I? where am I? why am I here?
“distant Etheria approaches”
3
renegade geology -
fumaroles expel ether
noxious sky glowing green -
the ancient magnet that attracts the Harmonauts
the planet appears balanced
in the gravity of deep space
4
through the air I descend
the spaceport is near
(but my mind is distracted by a thought she is here)
and radar reveals other schooners and yachts
the Harmonauts have returned
