Gemini

 

Wayward constellation

Gemini’s star-crossed path

Siamese zodiac

Born of celestial wrath

 

Bounded up womb to tomb

Spirits from words apart

Brothers under the skin

Torn by science and art

 

Tied to a common root

Two voices seeking the light

Needing separate orbits

Stars to pass in the night

 

Battles range between minds

The hydra fumes and feuds

Passion’s flame, reason’s ice

Form self-destructing moods

 

Calculations of Abel

Machinations of Cain

Household still divided

Each the others bane

 

A failed experiment

Returned to midnight skies

Their genes now procreate

A world of Geminis
