Well told story that leaves the reader feeling so sorry for the parents, and the sad truth of how the Sammy's of this world just don't know how to cope with life.
on your question, I think it would bring some drama into the story, if you write about the shoot out at the jail, showing how the trouble came about, perhaps a couple of prisoners revolt, their need for freedom is so strong....

I wonder if Hornblende will believe Mark when he tell him of his knowledge of Orion...

Shadowy images appear to me reading your poem and hearing the great music, especially in that fourth stanza.
I loved this poem as a whole, but those lines:-
Ethereal mist drifts across moss-covered gravestones,

That was so sad that Sophia Cubbett died after giving birth, I can't imagine this scenario, it's just unimaginable and so cruel.
I ejoyed the part about Albert Smith, he sounded like a lively character and Maria's writing came across...

Wonderful poem Rachel, full of the mysteries of the oldest stars and what they mean to you. Very impressed by those lines:-
