Ursa Minor

Jupiter, your fallen house,
A strife, and unto me,
A deal that mirrors that of Faust
When Hell’s my home to be?
Mercury, you orbit close
Gemini, the Twins, am I
Side by side, am juxtaposed-
To Pluto’s ruling Sign

You must be a sky watcher, too! Loved it! Especially the reference to Faust...I think of the Flying Dutchman, too.....V (PS I have always loved the term, fallen house---a taint of Greek tragedies...)
