Travels to Space on Exotic Creatures

Believe me,
it’s quite possible.

Simply click your tongue three times,
maybe four
and state the magic words:

then wait—

you’ll be on the back of a giant squid,
otherwise known as the Architeuthis
or wizard of the sea.

Mesmerised by its inky dreamy spells,
you’ll travel through the sky
to the edge of the Earth.

And there you will find,
if you look so carefully,

where the humpback whales debate over mysteries of life,
over a toast of planets
and exotic stars.
