Telescope Spies
Domenick Fini / V Mag at UVA
Night falls.
He etches speckled skies.
His audience enthralled
Two telescope spies.
The grace of esperance:,
An escapist’s salvation.
Every star writing freelance,
Archaic journals in the constellations.
Telescope spies
Finding faith through the lens.
Until a comet cries,
Smearing the ink from his pens.
The folklore of the cosmos
Scripts their optimistic vision.
Reading with one eye closed,
The stargazers’ tradition.
