The Famous Planet

Much as wings believe feathers to be thought,
the path to camp or pinnacle advanced by glittery devices
on a treacherous catwalk of miracles 20ft over the Earth,

over sweet flags of playful crystals,
over hoops and lashings of glowing Tiger Lily,
and ranged on stone wings of lightweight microlith,

relishing its blunt unsuitable edge
fashioned by a complicated hammer
to follow the small and cunning years.
