charlotte de witte - meridians lyrics
at three thousand feet
the night was placid and clear
the stillness unbroken
upon a vast carpet of nautical miles
with light air streams
the troposphere rippled
enfolding me within its cool nitrogen arms
looking below i saw
hills and valleys
fields and lakes
extending out towards the skyline
glancing above, i saw
a resplendent planetarium of stars
against a fathomless vertical void
whose immensity seemed to expunge
the nanoscopic awareness
that was myself
levitating lower
i absorbed sounds from the terrain
cricket, mole, fox and owl
peeped and crooned their refrain
from pasture and branch
soaring over a hay meadow
i skirted a cloud of bats, bathing in the compression
of their larynx-ultrasound
as it wrinkled the air
climbing at mach velocities
i found myself in the mesopause
staring down at the curvature of the horizon
here, at the fringe of sp-ce
orbiting the zenith between night and day
i detected sounds of a different type
sounds that leaked off the planet
sounds from super-cities and small townships
hissed curses and soothing -ssurances:
7.2 billion tongues gesticulating
in horror, elation and surrender
grappling with the pr-nouncement
of being alive
speaking to each other
to themselves
to the immeasurable abyss
through which they hurled
overcome with empathy
a thought suddenly struck me:
how did i arrive here
upon the edge of the world?
what has become of my body?
have i died?
is this an afterlife?
or was i ever really born?
how can i see and hear without eyes and ears
feel and think without a brain?
it must be that i am only dreaming
and is this moment
suspended above this exquisite orb
[only an illusion?]
