Another Timely Descent

Allen M Weber

It never occurred to me if Pluto should be considered
a planet. I don’t remember the temper of your sun,
let alone care to decide if a mouse will outwait the owl,
or how a girl will judge an approaching vagabond.

It’s all too much detail sometimes, such drama,
even for me; I have galaxies to spin—they progress
faster than you know. Yet through my absences,
you remain so earnest— believing yourself to be
a favorite child, so sure I must be in all things.

I nearly believe such faith can delay the restarting
of time, that you might follow the meteor’s arc,
willing it to burn away until, a molten seed,
it crashes through your waiting palm.
