Relativity
Relativity
As streetlamps like small thin dawns revealing
Through first pink flush of insect-fluttered glow
Their little worlds’ faint warm illuminings,
Brightening the night with local radiance
And spreading heat and light around themselves:
Just so throughout the pathless universe there roll
Numerous nameless suns with their attendant worlds
Igniting, waxing, waning, burning out, which yet
Are indiscernible or only faintly show
At the dark timeless borders of expansive space
