Here\’s a brief excerpt from Allan Preston\’s poem \”The Comet\’s Tale\”:



For finally I am God among my own life

And it is in the comet that I reside.



So shrieks through silent seas of stars:

The comet\’s tale.



And an excerpt from Jim Wood\’s poem \”Dance While We Can\”:



Let\’s join in a circle of fire

do something — wildly irrational

so provocative — to find

the ticket to paradise.
