-the sky readers-

the night skies bring a bright procession. then

the ancient Hindu-piston drives the arc where

elephants herald the breaking news from the shell

of a tortoise which supports them as the arc of the Earth

rests upon their backs, and circling the entity, the cobra

holds its tail within its jaws, thereby theorizing a closed-form universe

16 centuries before its expansion was discovered.

and so, I'll reach to peel-back this primitive dream;

the first step toward the destination.
