# Prismatic Barb Star

An eleven-spined barb star that eclipses to a black silhouette twice per loop, its nucleus unchanging, every spine changing species on its own schedule. Each is one knotted chain under seven interpolated numbers, so it morphs by deforming, not cross-fading, through four forms: pod club, barb spine, serrated lance, hair needle. Every edge still splits into a prismatic fringe. Bass clubs the star, treble hones it to needles. Rests as the barb spine.
