Companion Worlds
As the rocket flies
in the domain sub celestial,
there are plenty, sturdy bodies,
which of origin are terrestrial.
Moons of Mars orbit at the different speeds.
Deimos is more than double the distance,
Phobos orbits closer to the Mars
and is four times as fast.
From them Intellect jumps to Jupiter or Eris,
Ceres, Makemake or the Pluto,
countless comets, asteroids
or the rocket with the humanoids.
Unfolding lunar spectacles:
expiring Suns, tiny stars,
of shining Galaxies
in great distance of the barren worlds.
