Starry Night Over the Rhone, by Vincent Van Gogh (Netherlands) 1888

Corona*
 
*the rarefied gaseous envelope of the sun and other stars
 
Time and space          distance
6            feet
 
waiting like a spider
a three toed sloth
 
Waiting             apart
We are our own constellations
 
Out in the cold midnight
The weightlessness of it all
