From my windowsill on Jupiter
It rains diamonds here and still,
the real estate market is barren.
A few years ago, a red tornado raged through the town,
wrecking shops and schools from Europa to Callisto.
Jets whirred off to find a home,
but I, from my windowsill on Jupiter,
stayed to count the diamonds that pitter patter onto the porch.
