Stars and Scars

by Camellia-japonica

Stars and scars write our fate in script so deep a telescope barely make it legible. Scars unlike stars burn hotly in memory. Stars cold and distant are dying slowly. Slowly dying is the scar tissue, slowly growing is the memory. Stargazers look Scargazers look away.
