Astrology for Beginners

-Astrology for beginners

the new girl offends me
whenever she foretells small miracles
exploring astrology and my poor understanding
of his extinguished fire.
she said my venus is conjunct his mars
and our moons are in trine.
she told me about his lack of water and difficulties
in dealing with feelings.
she knows more about him than I do.

after thirty years, what is he
but a wish upon a sad star?
