we look up at them - they look up at us
it is all relative, they say - knowing not
who they really are... evenings fulfill
the fantasies of the day - the day explains
the misconceptions of the darkness and
we all adjust in some meaningful way
to life around us... still, we want to know
what is out there just as they want to know
about us - at least one would think that is
the case... or perhaps its sinister appearance
is not as bad as we expected... after all,
we only know what we see when we look
up into the sky and imagine their gaze on
us as we both try to understand and try
to interpret each other's presence... a
gift from the sky some would say that
has visited before but left no markings
from its visit except for a few structures,
we claim they do not exist just as they
claim that we do... but tonight, as we
see is a sky full of bright stars above us.
