there now here By Larry Eigner

there now here
the overlap of
8 minutes splitsecond
sunshine
off the walk
and an hour of
cloudless sky
a million years
from the center to the surface
gas float
out
when we can’t see
1.3 sec.s
the moon’s
distances
level
years all
directions
the pileup of stars
pushed
away
pulled
in
mostly pairs
