Junked space:
spectacle marketing.
Spectacular eyes roll over heaven;
engineered oracle recites adware
to the mountaintop.
Can you see the future
through miles of six-pack plastic?
In time, all aluminum
feels the warmth of the sun.
Geodesic, PR firm heart
free-bases the atmosphere.
Tonight
– while supplies last –
do you feel closer
or further from home?
Do you feel
kinship to the stars;
mimic floating by
selling you your own
square-meter of cosmos?
