Cosmic
Looking out of our house in the deep of night,
when the whole bright congregation had filled the sky,
it seemed that our neighbour’s security light
had conjoined itself with the heavenly throng,
bringing them all together into
one great constellation,
as it might be
the Man with the Infinitely Spangled Balloon
or the Lady with the Astonishing Umbrella,
all made up
of billions of packets of light
travelling almost forever
and all arriving at exactly the same time.
