Seed of Light

From inception
Burning bright
At the core
A seed of light

Systems

Like aspens.
Each tree sharing the same root
system.

Countries dividing world apart
Many beings comprising each country,
Each thinking with one brain +
Feeling with one heart

All floating along space on the same
big rock +
A part of the same system as other
big rocks
Each encircling a bright mass that dictates a clock

That system a part of yet a larger system

All

floating

along

Each doing their part.

Constellations

Stars forever frozen in time
Trapped.
Stuck staring.

Watching the opponent across the horizon for eternity.

The hunter waiting,
Forever waiting
While Scorpius is watching,
Forever watching

The moves, the shifts, the cycles
- to the stars -
seemingly stagnant.
