a new dwarf planet...
announced only this past year...
"hello...distance here...
eleven...billion...
miles away...orbiting now...
just off to one side...
gravity well...yes...
twenty two billion miles wide...
a spin round the sun...
it is some wonder...
the gravity well does stretch...
half way...the next star...
eleven billion...
just a drop in the bucket...
thousand year orbits...
humans are dreamers...
lifetimes amounting to what...
'castles'...in the air...
stan sand
