Mission

 * mission *
What brilliance glimpse
Through telescope narrow
Of immensity of universe
So much remains unknown beyond
This blue speck where we remain
Let's be gone before world turns
Let us explore sky horizons
Not leave down searching
Till no more searching can be done
As inertia takes hold
All universe in sympathy concurs
Galaxies slip back and fade
Fires in a million nebulas gutter
The universe begun with a bang
Fades to nothingness without a mutter.
