war dance of the stars


sedna in the inner oort cloud
dances in the coldest deep
of this
world unknown
to us

 

geminga
born three hundred thousand
years ago
by a supernova
created the small dense
our local bubble

we
conceited
sweepings of the stars
dance in the sun wind of
the gorgeous heliosphere
clueless
tiny bugs
with twenty thousand meters
sun apex per second

 
we
chattering and unnoticed
traverse the incredible blank
local flake
in the crust-folds of
a
little lump of water
blind passengers
for a blink

alpha centauri and deneb
altair and wega and arcturus
proxima cenautri and also you
fomalhaut

dance for us
because we can not know
anything

 

we see nothing
but
you

for a
fulgurous
eternal
moment
