ON HEARING A STAR JUST SWALLOWED A PLANET

 

have the planets come so far

to be eaten by the stars

I was home when the word came through

a star just chomped a planet whew!

that was a close one.

I must say and this I mean

I find it most discomfiting

to think of this scenario

I'm glad we've got

5 billion years to go.
