Clad in a white tee and faded jeans, and barefoot, you sit beside
a window in "that light": seventy thousand tons of hydrogen
fused, per second, to produce and scatter, around you, that light.

Author's Notes/Comments:
I first saw what I call that light on two mornings (after 10am in each instance): Saturday, June 19th and Thursday, September 9th, in 1976. These were like bookends to the most transformative summer of my life---when I emerged from my parents' shadow, and their exerted control; and also I escaped the identity, "Fairy Jerry," imposed upon me from February 3rd, 1969 through June 6th, 1974. The c.b. handle, Starwatcher (bestowed on me by my Beloved, BlueLevel, on the evening of Saturday, July 10th, 1976), freed me to my true identity; and has, since then, evolved to Starward-Led.
