Eventually, the sun rises
Even in the city
Even on cloudy days when she's hanging out solo behind the scenes and all we know of it is a gradual lessening of the gloom
Somehow the light always gets through
It's time, she says
Get up
Get moving
Find something to live for
Or someone (if you dare)
For all we know she loves to watch us as we hurtle past
Illuminated in our tiny actions
Intricate and and unbounded in a way
Stars were never meant to be
