SPACE BEYOND SPACE

It took our times to find the dark side-
black holes,dark matter
Sci-Fi defines our projections upon black and anti-matter
Buck Rogers ,Star Wars,Star Trek,Galaxy Quest=
children's serials screened for matinee sessions
Meanwhile-weapons in space.Spy satellites.Lasers.
Atomic and hydrogen bombs.Too many missiles pointing
From Cold War to HOT Fukoshima-all fantasies are real!
We have split the atom and ourselves.Eden as Sargasso.
Myths of flight are Challenger Space Shuttle(privitized)
Richard Branson owns the moon and will take tourists for a Virgin
Icarus a brand name on NASA merchandising.
The more we see,the less we are."When you wish upon a dark star...
Walt Disney melts on ice.Disneyworld meets Pirates in Space.
What we project=we become.STAR TREK conventions.Plastic figurines.
Space Museums.Somewhere,millions-of space junk orbiting spare parts
One day we will collide(at random)-like meteors,like asteroids
This has happened before.Remember?Velokovski/Lemuria?
Atlantis means more than a luxury resort.Dark Side of the Moon more than Pink Floyd
or TRANSFORMERS...
