The Void by Linnet Phoenix

Yes, I would miss you.
Like stood staring up
at the clear night sky
confused, wondering why
Venus had vanished
stage left. Stepped out
the galaxy for a smoke,
broken down in darkness,
made for the Milky Way.
Lost in a late super nova,
slipped over the corona
of a black hell rim hole.

    Great work, Linnet.
    Missing someone like you miss celestial beauty.
    That must be fucking rough.
