Stars pierce the dark void hard --
unpitying, glaring, static -- when seen
__________from beyond the veil of sky.
It is the air we need to breathe
through which we spy them
__________that makes them shimmer and blink
_____as though they were fragile,
ours being their maternal focus.
We read their peregrinations
__________to be fates' signs,
but it is over heartless eons they, unmoved in truth, shine
and would though charted by no one's eye.
