I like to gaze upon the boundless night sky, and
Quietly count the vast sprinkling of stars,
That I may concern myself with a relaxing yet
Fruitless endeavor, and momentarily
Know nothing of the worlds’ turmoil:
I lightly raise my finger and trace another constellation,
As the world carries on without me.
