Sublime it is to wait up here, so far beyond
the slightest thing that I might call a care.
Sometimes somebody speaks and I respond
the only way I can. Oh yes, I dare—
if daring's what we still call it these days?
Oh there's another number passing: nine.
There is no heroism here. Oh you say
that you would never take the role that's mine:
well fair enough and more fool you! Now eight.
So many little lights I can see here;
all green, fortunately. Not long to wait.
Seven the stars have never been so near.
I've complete faith in all the tech guys' arts.
Six. Now the distant roar. Main engines start.
