Benjamin S. Grossberg - 'The Space Traveler Talks Frankly About Desire'

Ben Grossberg reads a poem from his book 'Space Traveler', where an alien character discusses desire. The poem uses cosmic imagery to explore desire as a force that moves bodies, comparing it to the gravitational pull in space.
