Captain’s Log Of The Otherworldly
Log 1.0.3.11.22:
A small rocky world with waves bigger than itself
True love comes to those who wade
You may lose time for every step taken
Log 1.1.3.20.22:
A tidally-locked scorched rock made of stone
You would be dead if you didn’t care
But the mines and the bugs leaves one to yearn
Log 1.3.6.8.22:
A man on the moon now fragmented into seven eves
You can’t build self esteem by asking for it from others
Ubiquitously observing for the one above all
Log 1.7.11.28.22:
A moon with a dark side and a few cloaked observers
Regrets are but a pessimistic reminder of the lessons we learn
Due the crises located throughout infinite worlds
Log 1.8.12.7.22:
A forested moon that circumvents binary gas giants
Life is only complicated if you make it so
As two sides of a balanced force act like a pendulum
Log 2.1.3.20.23:
An exoplanet made of the living essence of willpower
There’s no universal way to process loss as every loss is unique
Like how my rings stain each finger through unchecked emotion
Log 2.2.4.1.23:
A great sandy rock with few mountains and cliffs
I am an opportunity, I am not an option
With a sea of sand dunes and thirteen date palms
Log 2.5.2.22.24:
A world covered in adaptable verdant biotechnology
Isolation leads to insanity at all turns
So I must return back from these transmogrifications
Log 2.6.8.4.24:
A mechanistic cityscape with a primal wellspring
As class consciousness gets confused with mob mentality
Resulting in protoforms refusing to learn to transform
Log 2.7.1.5.25:
A blackhole encroaches…
Culture is eating itself whole
Go in a direction, any direction plea–
