there is a starman waiting in the sky for me
the moon lights the way for us
illuminating the vehicle and my
starman
surrounded by an inky
darkness
the vehicle
is some kind of
futuristic vehicle
a hover car, perhaps
or the car of my dreams
the moon
just a silver sliver
reminding me of the fact
that there is a slim chance
that i will see my starman
and my starman
a mysterious figure
in an astronaut's suit
face covered
body covered
driving the car
as i lay on this hospital bed
thinking about dreams
and my starman
i wait for the surgery
that will change my life
one way or another
now the surgery
i can't think much
but my starman
fills my mind
while the doctors
experiment with my body.
there is a skylight above me
showing no stars
and a slivered moon.
it’s fading
it’s all fading
why is it fading
the doctors are arguing
about why the anesthetic
didn't work
somehow
why the surgery
didn't work
somehow
was it because i was
holding onto my starman
they are muffled now
everything is black
oh
there's a white light
i walk towards it
i want to touch it
i want to feel it
...
i have gone through
and in front of me
stretches an inky blackness
a slivered moon
no stars
but people
people everywhere
shimmering
silver
and gold
but one
only one
stands out
my starman
