Make sure to wrap their meals
   Clear shiny plastic 
 It’s a long ways 
to the edge of space

The food these 
   weightless voyagers eat
Careful wrapped 
    in clinging polymers
     emitting their adventurous 
  Nano particles 

There is a weak 
  blood/brain barrier 
      floating 
   in this endless night 

“How does one control
   the reactor at
    the rear of the craft?”
        They ask

Enough plastic to make 
    a bright red spoon
  has scooped away at their  
cognition

The stars are so bright 
   and beautiful 
   out here at the Oort Cloud 
   So far beyond the crazy moon
They no longer can operate
   the radio

God has a plan
