and while I dropped through outer space slung
shot from our planet's thrall and out to bank
about the Sun only to be further outward flung
to drop away from our fuzzy gray Oort Cloud
and glowing Astrosphere into the spinning
gravity well of the nearest star system only
about four light years away from here and
dried like a mummy on the way only to be
resurrected on another planet in a drop of
water doesn't mean it couldn't really happen.
