In the picture
they are sharing the world
between the two of them
she is holding it in her
outstretched arms
they stare at the
illuminated center
like it is precious
like it is everything
big glowing planet
for a moment on unspin
they ponder its frailty
and place
in the backdrop
of their existence
holding it there momentarily
before it bounces from them
into the galaxy
lost within a spiraling universe
Beautiful.
