Analysis of Vaults Of The Firmament
Vaults of the firmament display a midnight sky
Diamonds on dark velvets
disclose a starry eye
Vaults of the firmament display a satellite
Balloons on canopies
disclose a moony flight
Vaults of the firmament display a planet tread
Bodies on corridors
disclose a curvy spread
Vaults of the firmament display an atmosphere
Jackets on celestials
disclose a gassy tier
Vaults of the firmament display a jet-black hole
Escapes on gravities
disclose a klutzy role
Vaults of the firmament display a history
Details on origins
disclose a mystery
