exit stage left (last flight of “the rocket”)

full of myself
mindful enough
merely a player off stage today
the last titan in my life
the rocket
left a week ago
destination unknown
loss of signal
in a series of endings
reorienting
all i hold dear
actions
input v output
pause + quiet
moments captured in amber
frankincense pungent and true
provide a focus
for
thoughts tumbling
through
