CONSIDERING

by Charlie Mehrhoff


Considering the length of time
that it takes light
to travel across intergalactic space –

Looking, often times, at stars
that have long since burned out –


Waving
goodbye to America.


Charlie Mehrhoff has sent out little work in the past decade. Survival issues. However, he was recently featured in ORIGIN 2, Sixth Series. Crafting the Word is a Web site window into his work.
