Interval Valentine

Only from the heights can we see
How deep the hole we’re in
And looking up from there
 
How close the clouds of stars
And what continues not careless
Beyond the airless dome
 
An ever-expanding wilderness
Filled with creatures and concepts
Longing for their names
 
But here at ground level
We must be the gap the interval
The connecting in-between
 
Necessary to all planetary life
The notch carved out
In which some tiny creature nestles
