it’s like changing your name
to confront the story
of your destiny face to face
like changing your image
lying about your age
it’s like going around in circles
around a moribund star
I was wrong about the last phrase; had translated dead galaxy. I like moribund star just as well, though!
The moribund star is so much smaller! ( but the dead galaxy is accurate at one level), the narrower approach is closer to me but there is no way to know that unless you are me. The beauties of translation!
