“Climb the stairs to the moon.”

This black and white page is from Jenny Lawson’s You Are Here book and titled “Climb the stairs to the moon”:

With a touch of color added. (I share the text that’s around the tree roots below the photo.)

If I cannot see the sun
I’ll follow the stars.
If I cannot see the stars
I’ll follow the moon.
If I cannot see the moon
I’ll make my own.

  1. The arcs and the tree make me think of Van Gogh.

    Also, in the northern hemisphere at the right spot, and if the full moon should eclipse that North Pole Star, you might see the arcs of the Earth’s spin reflected by the star streaks with a camera’s open shutter, but I bet the full moon would be too strong for that and smudge. So, you would probably need the new moon night for the star arcs and an identical placement two weeks later with the full moon in the tree.
