perihelium




.
perihelium ~ That point of the orbit of a planet or comet which is nearest to the sun.

The blistering surface of a sun splits apart for an instant and the cosmic night is exposed to glimpse a brilliant comet arcing across infinity.

No? Ok, how about a weathered cement post in Safeway parking lot with a fragment of paper attached?

"The cosmic night exposed."
"The blistering surface splits apart."
"Arcing across infinity."

...and all this taking place in a grocery store parking lot. I wish I lived in YOUR world, xola.

You DO live in my world, Jani, or you wouldn't have been able to "see" that poem!
