TWO EUROPES
By Andrei Dorian Gheorghe
.
.
The Sun said to those in his system:
-According to the orbital revolutions
of the planets,
if you live on
the terrestrial continent of Europe,
it means that you are closer to me
than Jupiter’s moon Europa.
But if you live on
Jupiter’s moon Europa,
it means that you are farther from me
than the terrestrial continent of Europe.
Now if you'll excuse me,
I have to cauterize
some of my own spots.
