#25: Gigs In Space!!!!!

For Jozborne

Bodies rotate puce and ruptured in the void.
Speaker stacks pump uselessly at nothing.
Instinctively, the spacesuited compere reaches
to grasp at a collar that is not there.
He taps the mic with a vacuum-sealed forefinger.

Is this thing on? he mouths
to an airless moonscape of spinning corpses,
and grins,
bodies orbiting like fireflies.
