THE UNALIGNED ALIGNMENT
Astro-photo-poem by Andrei Dorian Gheorghe
/
/
-What kind of planetary alignment
do you see? -
said a disappointed man
on February 28, 2025.
Mercury and Saturn are too low
for a normal person
and disappear too soon,
Uranus and Neptune are not
visible to the naked eye,
and Venus, Jupiter and Mars
do not seem to be in a perfect line.
.
-Man - the planet Mars ‘
calls out to him -,
if you want some astral geometry,
you better look at the triangle
I make with Pollux and Castor,
two stars that seem very close to me.
So close that you might think
the two celestial Twin Brothers
are two Martians!
