“Space-Xd” by Mari-Lou Rowley

Thinking about birds

and wires

flight trajectories
missiles

satellites

geostationary versus low shallow 5G orbits

thousands of gestapo spacecraft marching across the night sky

Mars and Pluto conjunct in Leo in the tenth house

communication versus Convenient Surveillance

puffy clouds of lost language
thoracic videogame bone pain

thumbs numb

tongues dumb.

Who will Pay for all this Access?

Who will miss Betelgeuse—Orion’s flaming shoulder

going supernova,
the cool swirl of aurora,

Venus’ adoring gaze

if they don’t

go out

look up?
