There should be a word for what's happening to my life right now,
something like an upward spiral.
I'm afraid to say.
Whatever this is,
this isn't downward,

traded the ponies in
and got me an old-fashioned missile to the moon.
I'm not there yet,
still blasting through the void.
I hope
I get there soon.

"Yeah, that's nice."
"You're incorrigible."
"Why thank you, darling."
