January

So after weeks of rain at night the winter stars that much farther in heaven without our having seen them in far light are still forming the heavy elements that when the stars are gone fly up as dust finer by many times than a hair and recognize each other in the dark traveling at great speed and becoming our bodies in our time looking up after rain in the cold night together
