Galileo, Galileo



working through these endless
accusations, I leaned my
cheek against my hand I
dreamed of your absconded kingdoms.

I walked on clouds.

losing ground before your
last appearance, I renounced
the court astronomers, those

managers of light disparaging
the sun of Your heart in mine:
so bright
so bright and so
incapable of being bought off

'Managers of light' can never buy off the sun of one person's heart in someone else's. Beautiful conception. To my Favorites. I invite you to read my poem GALILEO'S GAZE.
