I see the sun
hiding from us
on some days,
ashamed of our
pitiless destruction.
When I was a child,
I thought
the Sun
was afraid,
but that was
narcissistic
Geo-centrism.
Now I avoid anything
more than conjecture
about flaming,
gaseous masses
that would blind you
just for looking at them.
When I fear
the Sun,
I fear God
and how much influence
there may
be, more than
giving to chloroplasts.
And we all know
the Sun's
going to explode, and
we push that
thought away like
all the times we
lost motivation
to live.
I see the Sun,
and the Sun sees me.
Praise the Sun.
