Planetary Revolutions

cloudy vision never allowed for a
clear perspective on the distant horizon
cant get past my own atmosphere to
acknowledge yours
but then again
your orbit is outside of mine
your stratopshere
doesn't eclipse mine
so its out of sight out of mind
pushed from the core
tremors start
and
this planet doesn't adjust well to
intergalactic changes
and selfishly
i want your moon to glow from only my
beaming sun star
want you to
on some revolution
remember that this planet exist in the galaxy
when wars and peasants
and all those planetary issues
and time allow you
time for space travel
but who knows
what really goes on
on those other galaxies
so far
so hidden
and clouded
from view
off in the distant horizon.
