Until I Get a Chance

Janet Kuypers
12/27/19, on the 1571
birthday of Johannes Kepler

Kepler talked
about how things were attracted to each other
how things circled around each other
And it makes me think
about
my attraction to you
it makes me come rushing to you
when I get closer
to you

and when you spin me away
I am sluggish
until I get a chance
to get closer to you again
