Evolution in Lights

Every process makes itself,
However tempting to draw
A thick line between a source

And process as its product.
The long chain of satellites
Launched into low-Earth orbit

Are not only the products
Of particular systems
But part of the same process

Resulted in those systems,
Process still making itself.
The process making itself

May come down to one process,
One self-making process chain.
You’re in the middle of it,

One of those things self-making
Process made. Outside, at night
You watch the various kinds

Of lights, from the beginning
Of the process to the end
Of snaking satellite chains.
