Is this only a comet
or a Charon's boat
ushering souls
out to the Oort?

Some night, not too soon, I'm in no hurry,
I hope to join them singing,
no not Hale-Bopp the gang's all here,

             but the music of whatever sphere we're in.  

Or is this now a ship approaching a
globular cluster,  hive of light .  .  .
