Apologies to Galileo
Hurtling around the sun 
as if we had something 
to say about it though 
that never stops us
from trying, surrender 
the only real choice, 
submit to gravity, 
coalesce around 
a molten core, 
encircle our fingers 
with summoned light,
completing one 
another’s mumbled 
incantations, hearts 
bound in shared conceit.
