Constellations include adventurous fighter characters;

so maybe there should be (or already is?) a constellation that is a ninja

who is throwing and/or barely dodging stars

that are thrown at him or her

or them…

2024’s International Astronomy Day (18th of May)

reminds me of these thoughts that I’m sharing today.

This poem Constellations was (years ago) published by Milpitas Post.

Continuing is the memory of this poem I wrote.

For the record: the Milpitas Post version of this did not have the “or them” part

since I was not aware of nonbinary when I wrote it.

I’m including “or them” in my work now

(when I’m aware of them). Now they’re more noticed.
