Ad Astra Per Aspera

of signs and significations

somehow the oracle lost her sight
not only for the day
but also of those timeless places
that danced through the song of her senses

time now gathers lint about her
soft yet unwelcome
a dappling across the patterns
that were once so apparent 

still she knows there is no happiness
there amongst the stars
only peace in accordance 
with an untroubled virtue 

scattering seeds
she waits for them to catch the light
and form their connections
to the houses where she is no longer welcome
