whose to say that you weren't the time traveler trekking back
and forth to here...the present...reciting your travels
in scripture of sci-fi...maybe that was your code
and the ciphers are the one's who are captivated...and remain
riding with your starship
whose to say that you weren't from the very places that were so vividly described...your voice captivating...your presence breathtaking


you spoke with confidence and regality...that was a lasting impression
