that I began as an astronomer—a liking
for bright flashes, vast distances, unreachable things,
a hand stretched always toward the furthest limit—

to inscribe a comet’s orbit around the walls
of our city, to gently stroke the surface of the stars. ↗

I don't like talking about myself. I'm not really interested in myself. One of the good things about being a supporting actor is that you get to talk about other people. ↗
