> YES, FERN, LET'S | j.d. nelson

and we went,
but that's not
the real story.

caption: hollow
rings, tube
battles
cow-point with
new philosophy --

humm... my floating
desk, here I go
see you forward 500
be back with my
typewriter!

clouds added up,
time was too long
and worlds passed

there's no one left
I said and that's
when I heard a voice,
small as it was, still
a voice -- I'm here --

I turned around,
expecting to see you
standing there,
but I only found
my shadow.
