13 Ways of Looking at a Star
- Destroyed from the inside out,
A tragedy sinners do not mourn.
No pity for a star.
- Here bright and burning,
Here dark and cold,
Alive as a star,
Dead as a star.
- How useless are the feet,
How empty the hands,
Of those who fear the stars!
- The river rushes below.
The sentinels are burning.
The bridge disappears.
The stars are black and cold.
- A lamb in the hay
Brings blissful peace.
Father shines the star.
- Circles becomes days and years,
And our star keeps us from the blackness.
- Drink from the fountain of the second star
And babes will be your rulers.
- Fifty siblings stand side by side
And wave.
I smile from within my star.
- The zoo that dictates our fates
watches us with stars for eyes.
- Fish that can only be caught by three
Swim peacefully in the night.
There is a shoe among the stars.
- Lone and proud, she stands.
Her bonnet is colorful and
Her smile sings of summer.
She has a star on her dress.
- One blow creates five wounds.
Those who nurse them
Despise the star.
- When stars are called upon,
The flower inside begins to grow,
Nourished by the dust.
