slipped into a mosaic
map of the solar system

Halley's Comet
burning bright as

a monk's flame-
retardant heart,

the moons of
Jupiter and "Cecil

Green" planet what
certain gifts entitle

a name engraved upon
a wooden bench,

a place amongst the stars,
a moniker emblazoned

across kiln-burnt brick,
in the final renovation

the unripe orb outlasts
even Pluto

dwarf planet
ejected from

the celestial ring replaced
