This is a Contrapuntal Poem, it can be read 3 ways. Separately and then together.

LOOKING UP
“The two most common elements of our universe are hydrogen and ignorance.”– Harlan Ellison
astronomy ivory
are curdled chunks of milk
past
supposed animal
shudders untouchable
thrown up glitter
or pubescent sky acne
established
flying space trash
thats all
orange blue stars
streaming from the kettle spout
seen at present
artwork weaved across the atmosphere
life from eternity prior
splattered
innumerable across its face
eternal promise of greater light in darkness
exploding delight,
fullness incomprehensible
