The Night Sky
…holds the moon the way a lap holds a head.
…is the night sky until a certain time each morning.
…drops the rain. Looking requires "taking it in the face."
…is there past the ceiling past the attic past the roof.
…can never hold a rainbow.
when you can see all the way back to the beginning…
…when it fills with flocks of geese heading one way or the other.
…only gives you one star at a time when you are in, say, Chicago.
…accompanies you home if you let it.
…has satellite cancer.
Warning: Objects are colder than they appear.
...is for falling through forever.
