"Can you bind the beautiful Pleiades? Can you loose the cords of Orion" Job 38:31. Image from the Digitized Sky Survey (NASA)




seven sevens

sat beneath the Pleiades

tonight

I kiss and kiss and kiss

you

good night

 

seven sisters shining

seven lights a' steering

 

seven moons since

our pairing

that night

 

seven steps to heaven

seven sent softly

 

seven hopes 'n

seven fears a'glow

 

alone we go

this universe

to know
