TOM
  SO STILL THE NIGHT
  NOT A STIRRING
  IN THE AIR.

  CALM AND STILL.
  NOTING MOVES.
  NEITHER LEAF NOR HAIR.

  STILL THE EARTH
  LIKE A SHIP
  ON A SILENT SEA.

  HOLDS ITS COURSE
  SWIFT AND FREE.

HANNAH, GEORGE BRECHT

  STILL THE STARS
  WHEEL AND CIRCLE
  THROUGH THE SKY.

  STILL THE SKY
  HANGS ABOVE US
  SO UNPERTURBED.

LINA

(taking Tom’s hand)
  STILL THE STARS
  IN THEIR HEAVEN
  WILL WHEEL AND TURN
  UNDISTURBED
  STILL THEY BURN.

ALL

  STILL IT MOVES
  IN ITS ORBIT
  THROUGH IT ALL

  STILL IT MOVES
  THOUGH IT TREMBLES
  IT DOES NOT FALL

  STILL THE EARTH
  THOUGH IT WHIMPERS
  AND BLEEDS AND BURNS.

  STILL IT MOVES.
  STILL IT TURNS.

BACK to the Synopsis.
