Summary

The web content is a poetic narrative about a small, sentient spaceship that values companionship and is filled with bonsai trees and poems, navigating the galaxy with a sense of wonder and innocence.

Abstract

The article "Everyday Stories #13" presents a whimsical tale of a diminutive spaceship, personified as a she, who roams the cosmos not by choice but in search of company. This spaceship is unique, housing bonsai trees and poems within her, and is guided by the natural elements of the galaxy rather than traditional commands. She is described as a vessel of life, constructed with elements like water, wood, and hummingbird feathers, and adorned with the colors white, brown, and blue. Despite her lack of understanding of complex scientific theories, she diligently maintains her course, avoiding errors. The narrative suggests that this spaceship is a place of significance, where existence and consciousness may have originated, and where time has left its mark. The story concludes with a gentle reminder to treat the spaceship with care, as she is precious and irreplaceable.

A lonely weeny spaceship

Treat her with care

Wanders in blank wanders a lonely weeny spaceship Not by her choice she likes to be in company

Wanders in blank wanders a lonely weeny spaceship Smells the cosmic air a fox cub the mother spaceship has lost her

Be careful

She is not just any spaceship Inside she is full of bonsai and poems

She doesn’t need to be commanded she has antique and shiny keys Like a bandoneon

And follows the conductor of this portion of the galaxy Rubs on the rim of a glass Concert of crickets and cicadas

Lonely weeny spaceship heart of fire built with water and wood and hummingbird feathers

White brown and blue She knows nothing of parallel universes nor of string theory She lives only one life

White brown and blue She doesn’t know the uncertainty principle but every day she works hard to rotate on herself without making big mistakes

Treat her with care if one day away you will find her

They say that Time has sown its yellow daffodils there

They say that many of God’s names are engraved on her surface

They say that some time ago incomprehensible things as life and consciousness right there began or began again
