I just had a thought... 

Amara is an astronomer who examines interplanetary dust and the stars. Her
cousin was a rock star. They had something wonderfully precious in common - 

"The dust wakes out of its slumber and I follow its passage. 

>From volcanoes on moons, through comet breezes, 
Atop bookshelves in rooms, expelled by human sneezes, 
>From disks of new stars into emerald-blue planets, 

The dust is a piece of me, or am I a piece of dust? 

We fly from the ecliptic brightness, 
feel comforted by the local fluff, and 
drink a ceylon tea at the cosmic tea table 
with our friends from beta Pic. 

They don't laugh at my jokes, but I smile anyway."
