"Looking Off" (by Joe DiMino)

Looking off
Into night sky
Especially away from city lights
The universe appears
To go on forever—

But here, on earth,
We are much closer—
Believing that
Distance really matters;

Teach to measure seriously—

Count all going and coming;
Place rules of rulers on
What we have,
Think we need,
And sadly
How long we love—
