Starman's Guide Part 2

Protein factors stare me right in the face
The tapes roll by of the human race
One man's infinity is just another's empty space
Here where uncertainty quivers
At the eighth decimal place.

And lace curtains add the little touch
that, except for the fusion drive hum,
lets you almost imagine you are home;
the smell of home cooking
on the front porch
and a generation's lazy dreams
of flying mother nature's silver seed
to a new home in the sun.
