Twinned Planet

On a twinned planet
where stars shine in different patterns
presenting constellations with unusual names,
valued perspectives shape parallel curves
converging at vanishing points
of uncommon human experience.
I’ve been taken there on many occasions
returning to my world
filled with a sense of intriguing possibilities.
 
Beyond my usual radars, clipping ships
sail the horizon following special instructions;
they filter my assumptions through a strain
made with soft, yet durable, gauze.
A stepped pyramid is imprinted in my mind
as a place which holds treasures from ancient times.
If you wish to remain the same, don’t go there.

Yelluw_always is one of DUP’s deaf poets - and from that pointed experience of life I have been educated through her poetry to understand humanity with a keener eye. She will do the same for you - if you let her.
