Neither Here Nor There, a rengay
frozen with you
a faded rose you picked
on sad old Earth
Ship had to wake me early
my tube was on the blink
under far-off stars
I play games with avatars
lose every one
sets its skill up or down
old 3D vids
with new endings every time
all comedies
cryodeck
and airlocks sealed against me
that one episode
plastic cutlery with meals
spoons only now
I run
shouting through corridors
not my nursemaid!
I’m splicing genes in roses
Ship will save the best for you
I look at the stars
some day Ship will let me have
a knife again
