Camping in the Stratosphere

My whitest bed is a speeding planet,

With memory and expanding space.

The sheets are layers of impermanence,

Peeled off, replaced by new, temporary

meanings.

The structure of the Hawaiiana, pineapple posts

Add the comedic element to the contemplative

Nature of the lightening way.

Though the space does not stop at the edge

of the softness,

It hovers in the emptiness of its own time,

With a specific permanence that transcends itself.
