#anyway here's me pairing saturn with abandonment issues

[schuylerpeck]

I have no interest in outer space. I couldn’t begin to explain a lightyear. today, I read saturn’s rings are disappearing and couldn’t hold the tears back. every year, another layer of banded dust thins under the sun’s hot breath. even in my ambivalence, even though the planet’s shape is unlikely to change much in the years I’ll live to watch it—however slow nature’s exit, I’ll still ask for one more kiss goodbye.
