Galaxies Are Swirls of Milk

The way comparison works
Begins with local reference,
A butter-obsessed hymnist
From a pastoral people
Who thinks of nothing richer
Than abundance of butter
And maybe some honey when

Trying to describe the sky
And its abundance of lights,
The earth and its abundance
Of life, the short-lived in time
Tokens for more durable.
Ah, the universe is rich
With such butter and honey.
