"So What Are Stars?" by Joe DiMino
So what are stars?
Distant gleams
Millions of miles away
And just as far dreams;
Furnaces for illumination,
Giving us insight
To what would otherwise
Remain impenetrable night
Cauldrons of chemicals
To keep alien witches
Occupied stirring spells,
Not realizing
Ultimately
They are in the service
Of light
Evil is cunning
But never bright;
Distant gleams
For wishes
For prayers
For prose
For poetry
Whatever else
Muse eventually shows
Not to overlook the near ones?
Stars of politics
Of stage
Even science
Often seems
More brilliant
Than honored sage;
Stars more mysterious
Than the wisest
Can imagine
Far from statistical,
Far more mystical
Angels candles
Devils torches
Many eyes of God
Seeing all
.
