Distantruths composed of maybe-life
and fusion.
These were pinholes in an ancient's sphere,
windows to the celestial dawn.
[Platonic?]


Incisive halogens overpower the past,
lacework reworked into bluegreenyellow
afterimages.



(Which truth overwhelms the other?)

The author's comments:
Have you ever seen the stars in the countryside?

It's like being in a snowglobe.
