Surfing the Saturnalian winds
Ride the wild surf
Surfing on the winds of Saturn
gale force laughter
as the tiny button sized sun gives off a wan light
Earth robots
flung far and wide on the mathematical formulas
of gravity, momentum, and mass
Astronauts and cosmonauts
men and women- brave and armed with inquisitive minds
trained and trained in muscle and brain memorization for any event
Surf the towering ammonia clouds
as 300 hundred mile per hour winds
buffet the titanium impregnated carbon fiber boards
Core rope memory
hand woven by the fingers of diligent women
is the software that is permanently incorruptible
In eternal silence
but within the bowels of the spacecraft
are the sounds of human embraced machinery eternally vigilant
Their frail carbon carasses encased in micro sized fullerene suits
as nano reflectors gather light
to see the whip sawing eddies
Old tech is hardened
Against the pulses of light speed gamma waves
Protons merely bounce off the bundled, millimeter thick wires
To slice and evade this Saturnalian wildness
as those three weary one by one they fall by the wayside
preserved by short burst qubit communications
Space is but a knowable frontier
to surf not the least knowable world
but we, humans, want to measure ourselves
