Cosmic Rules

Edytta Anna Wojnar

There is the Sun & other massive stars smaller than thumbnails.

What interests us is a planet abundant in water & trees with its own orbiting moon

where night twists people inside their heads—their lives in horizontal chaos.

There is a mountain & at its foot a man on his knees.
