Planetary Formation

Martin Weeks

Twin spheres made up of molten star,
we float in intersecting orbits.
Arcing thoughts and feelings
race out to touch each other —
electromagnetic currents of connection.

Gravity spirals us together
for the grinding joy of friction
that wears our shells smooth.
We share mass in collisions
of lives turned into liquid,
then we separate and inertia
pulls us apart into circles of isolation.

Past trails behind in fragmented memories
of wholeness in combination.
We spin in tandem, worlds alternately
chasing the other, trying to combine
down to the cores of us.
