Astronomy
"What are you?"
Jupiter turns
"That depends. Some say a god.
Some say a planet."
"Both?"
"I doubt it."
"Don't you know?"
"Only once you've decided."
"But why? I'm not god."
"Neither am I."
"So I decided you aren't?"
"Unless you change your mind."
"But it's not made up."
"Then I suppose I'm both."
"But you said you weren't."
"Because you never made up your mind."
"Then I decide you're a planet."
"Perhaps, but you still haven't made up your mind."
The boy took his eye off the telescope
Astronomy was confusing
