Spacetime =
slips me a mickey (that's tricky),
continuum slingshots me past
the first planets of the system

(I say don't sweat the small stuff),
skating the rings of Saturn
to fly away, and
bounce off (Ur)anus,

heading (headlong) towards
the Oort cloud, dodging
ice chunks (success: fail)
pelting me, silently shouting

"brother, can you spare a dime?"
Not only am I suffering from
centrifugal vertigo but, what can you
get these days for a dime??

I stumbled on a new group where the members have been playing out an experiment this month of April as a kind of NaPoWriMo, called NaPoGliiMo.  I was instantly intrigued because of the edgy entries from the ones in the group who are participating.  Stay tuned to see if I can run with the pack, even if I do it with a limp. (update: I made it all the way!)

The rule of thumb for interpreting the themes if you're going to do a piece for the group, there really is no rule.  They tell everyone to go with how you, the writer, interprets them.  And I say that goes for the readers, too.  So,  I've dedicated this piece with one of the gliitchmonth's group themes for April: : "outer limits".
