Ourania is
an enigma
she is
invisible in her starry robe
against the darkening
sky
but each
clear night we stand
watching her
movements
darkness is
in her she is
the dark
matter that fills
the universe
the dark energy
that sparks
everything
in the day
she has a golden
orb around
her as she rides
the sky in a
boat laden
with songs
carries a globe
constantly
spinning
Ourania full
of magic
is the first
astronomer
Uranian once
considered
a tragic
pronouncement
who knows
what goes on
in that
heavenly soul
she is old
and young
she is light
years away
and right
here now
just as we
are here
and are
everywhere
but in
fireworks of celebrity
unseen
unheard unknown
