On winter solstice 2020
One core constellation
Jupiter and Saturn
two phantom planets
encountered visually by
the earthlings vividly
in 1226 during
the Albigensian Crusade
in 2020 through
the Covid-19 plaque
from the Middle Ages
to the Space time of now
it makes me think thus
everything in between
a little girl of 5
taken by her mom
at noon watching
her first solar eclipse
through a piece of glass
smoked grayish black
-
that's why today I applaud
that I can see this
and make the connection
to a house somewhere
in Occitania -that this
middle-aged village
contains stones upon stones
and this house was begun
around that time
so the starry combination
of two great Ancient gods
is a cool culmination
what makes me happy
knowing that we share
all people everywhere
fates of humanity -
and humbly we should
embrace our smallness
amid a second of
Gaia's part of the universe
