Overshadowed, But Not for Long

Overshadowed,
But Not for
Long
She is dark.
Better to see the
fire she tends
within her
depths.
It burns for
a love that has
no requirement
to extend its
soft arms.
Offer its
mass to orbit
a spinning world
struggling to turn,
keep its axis, reclaim
its quintessence.
All but lost on its
way through the
dense passage.
All but overcome
by its own shadowy
revolutions, its
ellipse an
imperfect
course
round.
A ram
meets
Poseidon
in his field
of blue ice
nearly 3 billion
cosmic miles off,
last engaged as
Darwin offered his
Origin of Species,
Marx his Das Kapital,
and the Geneva Conventions
had need to rise
in the sphere,
the scope
of man.
It was
thence
Lady Liberty
made her transatlantic
crossing to light the torch
for humankind's tired, poor,
huddled masses
yearning
to breathe
free.
Yearning.
To breathe.
To free.
{oh, to free—}
Thus, to arrive
to a new
land.
A new world
where
all
are
welcome
home.
So, too, in the shaft
of a dwarf star's blaze,
in the rekindle of its
long terrestrial
embrace, its
infusion with
truing north
of divine
destiny,
she opens
her heart—
even in its
overshadowing,
even with this
eclipsing:
holding
bloom
in the
warm
cradle
of her
bare
palm.
A
chalice
brimming
with
springs
and salts
and new
born
stars.
Here,
she whispers,
now.
