Take Off

Do not fear the sudden jolt.
Flying machines will shake a bit in turbulence.
In landings and takeoffs, a bump or two is only natural.

Everything immobile, eventually, is set in motion,
Everything that moves, sooner or later slows and pauses.

Call it cardiac arrest,
call it a sensation of sudden panic,
it's the realm of going cosmic.
