Love is more than metaphor in
Orbit (notes from the
edge of forever).
Love is like the intractable need
connected
to the exploration of space —
especially when the search is bent toward
the hope of some ultimate encounter:
that contact with somebody, out there,
who knows who you are.
It's as if an
inner
wilderness were turned inside
out and projected to infinity.”
