The Me That You Know

Stars burn brilliant
hypnotizing in blue eyes
they draw lines across
plastic sealed windows
the ship travels fast
from planet to planet
moons terraformed
growing corn in space
feeding cows in craters

docked at a space station
we bought some strange liquid
that made me dizzy
and bedridden for five days
stars burning in my eyes
could not work
transferring data from port to port
the ships computer scanned
and found little beings
swimming in my brain
little metal beings
rewiring me
literally
I am becoming machine
and it is O.K.
I am not afraid anymore
