To find out is human; to find in, divine.
Outwhere
A rocket breaking free
from Earth's gravity is,
by dint of direction,
traveling a trajectory
into outwhere.
No limit is seen
to what is outer,
but what is inner
offers with its
infinity a rainbow
and a promise.
Let rocket people
point their probing
within if they would
make discoveries.
Far-going rockets
may be today's
Tower of Babel
reaching out and up
to an imagined
material heaven while,
nearer than our nuclei,
heaven is hugging us.
