pockets
a dying star
embedded in every constellation
a desire to make something out of nothing

it’s not too far—
those galaxies of fruition
a living exhibition of our worth
how it could all be
is here on earth

in our pockets
that contain and hide an entire world
unbeknownst but always there
casually stuffing life

in those moments
we see what’s worth a try
sometimes the planet takes over
but the pockets never die
