Observation lounge by Richard TrotterWithin the seams
of the atmosphere
we survey the world
muted and watching
whatever way the scales fall
unhampered by the search
for original endings.
Here we check the flight path
of every elusive alien,
and defend the keys
to every secret passage,
but most of all reading
the stories on your skin
lounging on the crystal
in the warmth of your voice.
