naive gazer (Free verse) by richa
As blunt as a hammer pounded on steel
he draws the stars positions
cutting the centimetre lines of his notebook,
with no knowledge
of the hidden push and pull of gravitation
the planets exert.
And if he should swap his stars with words,
his eyes for a mouth
as pale as a painted stage-prop lantern.
Should he offend
it would surely be meant no more than
his coldness.
