deserted theory

by Kathleen Wilson

take
two

to form
a brown-dwarf desert

one orbits around
another

comes into being
at the same time as its companion

migrates
towards the other

smaller is eventually
consumed by larger

they cannot exist
as binary stars

recently
it has been observed

if the larger companion
close in orbit is smaller

the theoretical desert
is possibly destroyed

as consumption
is less likely

the matter is still
a topic of debate

COROT-exo-3b is somewhere between a star and planet..but here poetically, perhaps we wonder where is the stabilizing personality. What egos cannot exist together for the relative consumption of the other. Love the actual (and theoretical) possibilities. Thanks.
