[[Kara Thrace|Kara Thrace's]] old apartment on {{RDM|Caprica}} in the city of [[Delphi]] is filled with paintings on canvas as well as some wall paintings {{TRS|Valley of Darkness}}.
In addition to a curious [[Eye of Jupiter|circular symbol]] that Thrace has doodled since she was a child ([[A Measure of Salvation]]), the [[Viper (RDM)|Viper]] pilot wrote a simple poem to the left of the symbol.


In the wall to the left of a curious [[Eye of Jupiter|circular painting]] that Thrace has doodled since she was a child ("[[The Eye of Jupiter]]," "[[Maelstrom]]"), the [[Viper (RDM)|Viper]] pilot wrote a simple poem:
:''Methodically smoking my cigarette''
 
:''Every breath I breathe out the day''
[[File:Valley of Darkness-Starbuck Helo.jpg|right|thumb|The poem written to the left of the [[Eye of Jupiter|mandala]] in Kara Thrace's apartment {{TRS|Valley of Darkness}}]]
:''With every delicious sip''
<blockquote>''Methodically smoking my cigarette''
:''I drink away the night''
<blockquote>''Every breath I breathe out the day''
:''Stroking my hair to''
<blockquote>''With every delicious sip''
:''The beat of his heart''
<blockquote>''I drink away the night''
:''Watching a boy turn into a man''
<blockquote>''Stroking my hair to''
<blockquote>''The beat of his heart''
<blockquote>''Watching a boy turn into a man''</blockquote></blockquote></blockquote></blockquote></blockquote></blockquote></blockquote>
==Notes==
*While Kara Thrace's "love life" does not appear to have strong levels of commitment ("[[Unfinished Business]]," "[[The Eye of Jupiter]]"), it is probable that her poem is dedicated to her late fiancée, [[Zak Adama]].
