Jealous Jupiter

Through endless, vast, eternal space there hangs my most omniscient orb. So far a dark and lonely place, no sunlight to absorb… just as my dark and lonely soul, forever unexplored. My many moons of sordid glow, as all my suitors orbit slow – but Titan’s love I longed for so, forever mine ignored… and left this dark and bloody spot – forever to abhor. *A comparison between a covetous, lonely love and that of Jupiter for Saturn's Titan :).

I've been away from your words too long. This is a magnificent poem, the depths, moods, and yearning. Love it.

Sophia, rather overwhelming to be honored in this fashion. How deep and cryptic your "dark and lonely soul, forever unexplored." A most pleasant blend of science and myth. Thank you.
