23,26- the solstice

the axial tilt is 23, 26
we are farthest away from the sun
and today farthest away from ourselves.

once a thousand years before, we celebrated the sun that stood still
with a 12 day festival
but we are no longer attuned to the skies.

once a thousand years before, we scratched cycles of the moon
into bone
now the rebirth of the sun is like a secret.
