some stars spin in the atmosphere
above our heads
they puncture the dark inky night
the way they move is to shimmer
it’s an easy movement
in conjunction with other stars
they form a pattern
gracefully
artfully
tracing paths across the sky
if we could see them close up
we’d see serenity
as they spin
and arms stretched out endlessly
trailing into one another
and linking to other stars
also spinning
some stationary
some doing movements that don’t make sense at first glance
but they can link together
and suddenly the one over here knows exactly how to do what it does
