Starbuck's Poem: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 20:09, 3 April 2008

For information on the significance of the circular painting on Starbuck's wall, see The Destiny and Eye of Jupiter.

Kara Thrace's old apartment on Caprica in the city of Delphi is filled with paintings on canvas as well as some wall paintings (Valley of Darkness).

In the wall to the left of a curious circular painting that Thrace has doodled since she was a child (A Measure of Salvation), the Viper pilot wrote a simple poem:

Methodically smoking my cigarette
Every breath I breathe out the day
With every delicious sip
I drink away the night
Stroking my hair to
The beat of his heart
Watching a boy turn into a man

Notes

While Kara Thrace's "love life" does not appear to have strong levels of commitment ("Unfinished Business", "The Eye of Jupiter"), it is probable that her poem is dedicated to her late fiancée, Zak Adama.
