Quotes and Poetry on stellarastronomy

I should have learned

I should have learned
To read the night sky
Constellations
Messaging me
Through the velvet blue
Orion burning on
Three times you let me see
That Virgo
Bent and needing rescue.
And those that came before us
Knew so much more
A multitude of burning discs
Shining on in cymatics
Vibrating with creation
Eminating epiphanies
Straight at us
Yet we do not see
We do not even
Raise our self centered heads to the sky
The abyss filled with light and sounds
So many questions
Already answered.
We are them and they are us
Points of light and song
If we are anything at all.
Astrologically speaking
There is so much more to see
Yet the ancients saw it all
Mapped it out
To show us their significance
And we look down on them
As they looked up
To see their inception
Their song of birth
Billions and billions and billions of worlds and more
Like Carl said
He wasn't wrong.
And I look up
At those mystical 3
Orion's belt has always
Mystified me
It beckoned and tempted and enticed my soul
Like a carrot on a stick
Who is it calling to me from there?
Across time's flat circle
That spiral round and round and then here we are right next to each other all along
A string of quantum theories
Played like a symphony
And I think its just me up there on that burning fire belt of frequencies
I think I'm calling to myself to see
Recognize
That we are all unique points of light and music
One and the same.
And we've been here and there and everywhere
At all moments
Always.
Its comforting to know
I'd still take the time to say hello
To myself from so far and yet so close.
Maybe I'll take some time
To learn to read our night sky.
