One Piece A Week: its day

every planet has its day

in the cycles of the gravity well
mass and space lever motion
from all the directions of infinity
atom-spin inside the bone
matter holding itself
in rotation
precession
orbit

star-stuff
in the solar wind
transits our shallow
polarities
mere presence
like an aurora
lights the moment

A little something for Earth Day. A mere bagatelle. Not unlike human importance in the grand cosmic scheme of things…
