Cosmic Knight Errant

 

 

I’ve been chosen

To ride the stars

Never ending 

Non returning 

Voyaging on

Till sustenance

Depletes the 

Resources 

On which I

Exist after 

Which I die

 

My role

Is chronicler

Of all I see

Reporting back

To those

Who cannot

Follow due

To fear and

Doubt

Accepted

As champion

To ride their

Dreams

Their fruitless

Hopes that

They could not

Fulfill.

 

And so I pilot

This joyful

vessel a

Knight errant

In search of

Glory hidden

In the cosmos

While my 

Viewers cringe

In horrid fear

And I in great

Continuous awe

Discover

Tomorrow

I like the form you've chosen, or rather, the form that has chosen you!

I suspect that you have always been intrepid, whether in the air, on the ocean, facing your foes and fears, and in this you are evermore intrepid—a discoverer.
