April 1 — Day One of NAPOWRIMO 2014: false starts & last minutes

 

night sky

 

the stars i think i understand

great plasma ovens continuously

cooking hydrogen into helium

& held together by their own

    gravity

 

but what does the darkness around them

hang from

Okay, so leaving it a bit late today.  Several abandoned attempts/topics, before this in the last half hour of the day. That good old standby: the stars.  Still, I hope this isn’t as wishy washy as some star poems can be (heck, as some of mine have been).  Possibly even thought provoking in a naive kind of way.
