Across centuries and light-years, the same puzzle recurs: meaning shifts depending on where you stand and when you look. Jane Taylor's nursery rhyme circles the cosmos without her name attached; Omar Khayyám's verses were reassembled into a sequence he never wrote; and a manuscript bride speaks defiance to readers who no longer share the moral world that shaped her. Poetry, like the universe itself, does not yield a single truth — it yields a different truth to every vantage point in time.
