UNITY by FREDERIKA BLANKNER

First Line: TUG AT AN ATOM, AND THE STARS FALL ON YOR HEAD
Last Line: TUG AT A STAR -- YOU HOLD YOUR HEART, INSTEAD.

Tug at an atom, and the stars fall on your head;
This life is one, -- indissolubly wed:
The Universe is strung upon a single thread;
Tug at a star -- you hold your heart, instead.
