LOOKING UP IN THE SKY AT NIGHT

Since before the dawn of recorded time
Man has searched the Heavens through sleepless nights,
Looking for answers in awe and wonderment,
Tracing the outlines, making up songs.

I only see the enormous magnificence
Lying before me, resplendent in beauty,
Making my essence seem desperately small,
Yet giving me pause just to know I belong
In some paltry way to a larger contingent
Interconnected to worlds without end.

I longingly gaze and become immortal.
... Everything clear now.
... Nothing is wrong.
