Armchair Observatory

A friend bought me an LED light fan
batteries included in red hand-held tube.

It does a fair impression of The Leonids
over Torre de la Guaita

or any shower at a thousand or so
meteors per hour
over most any tower

light trail whizzing round and round
in random patterns
and all in my own living room.

Cool.
