I'd tell them, you know, if they wanted to know. I'd tell them all sorts of things.

Starlight

There aren’t enough stars in the city;
They don’t get down this far.
We get the little light-crumbs
Leftover from the grand feast of the cosmos,
The galaxies and the planets,
And I am malnourished from lack of starlight.
