Anatta

A poem

When was the last time that you looked at the night sky? Let’s go stargazing…

This is the first deep field image from the James Webb Space Telescope.*

Anatta

I’ve been too long
from the sky and stars,

the steadfast company
of what came before,

what will be, after.

I lie on my back
looking up, until — 

a shift — up becomes out.
I am no longer the center.
