  Timothy Morton, "'Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star' as an Ambient Poem; a Study of a Dialectical Image; with Some ...
The poem "The Star" is its background: the voice of a nurturer (typically one assumes a mother or nurse) lulling a child in its bedroom.

 Twinkle Twinkle Little Star :: Astrobiology Magazine ::
Summary (Dec 09, 2005): Scientists using a combination of ground-based and orbiting telescopes have discovered a failed star, less than one-hundredth the mass of the Sun, possibly in the process of forming a solar system.
But unlike stars, brown dwarfs do not have enough mass -- and therefore do not have enough pressure and temperature in their cores -- to sustain nuclear fusion.
This artist's concept shows microscopic crystals in the dusty disk surrounding a brown dwarf, or "failed star." The crystals, made up of a green mineral found on Earth called olivine, are thought to help seed the formation of planets.

What is surprising is that while other children his age (just 10) spend all their free time, energy, and interests on video games, television or sport, he willingly devotes it to music, performing and composing.
