Dizzy Doe
Inspired by “Girl, Interrupted” by ED 10/6/22
Dizzy
Interrupted cycle
High spirits above me soar
Willing
Washed dishes
To wash upon the shore
Buzzing
Stomach rumbling
I saw her in dreams before
Quiet
Doe-eyed
Chicken bones on the floor
Illness
Mind, body
Black reflection mirrored real
Pills
Fever chills
Next trip ethereal
Blondie
Blank-eyed
Creep the basement walls
Travel
Fly killer
The dictionary defines “appalled”
Flu
Bean soup
Galaxy dust in the broth
Rest
His behest
To control, but indulge in sloth
Horseshoe
No clue
When luck ran out the door
Bathroom
Don’t assume
I brought this upon myself
Sin
Big win
Put the aspirin back on the shelf.

THE RAREST OBJECT IN THE SOLAR SYSTEM
In 1979, the English astronomer Fred Hoyle famously remarked that outer space would only be an hour's drive away if our cars could travel straight upwards. While technically true, the vastness of space makes it incredibly remote. For instance, it would take 400 billion hours for a car to reach the next star over. This remoteness limits our ability to study interstellar objects up close, but occasionally, the universe sends visitors our way.
