all are tiny pivots

in our flesh

we get a sense

feel them shift

movements limit

the paths ahead

illuminate

flick the switch

elliptical

orbiting

troubles stacked

you're serious

though it's not

always as it seems

small events

driving us

get obscured

by larger things

elliptical

orbiting

confounded us

for many years

I'm charting stars

at night I wait

the clouds to part

changes made

elliptical

orbiting

confounded us

for many years

a piercing, high

pinhole light

I know it's there

it will be there

yet other more

dimly lit

satellites

accelerate
