National Poetry Month: Miri

Miri
(from the point of view of Miri)

He was wonderful, Jim,
he saved us all from death,
but now he's leaving,
back to his ship and his crew,
I liked him,
his yeoman did too,
and now I've said goodbye,
so back to the mysteries of space he'll fly...
Why?

Miri

It was present in the way we
didn’t think about it
in the tense voices as we fought
to find a cure
in the silences lousy with smouldering anger
and despair.
