Blossoms begin dark – /
seeded in the deepest heart /
of soil, humans, and stars.
Blossoms begin dark – /
seeded in the deepest heart /
of soil, humans, and stars.

Stars still light the night /
yet a light across the yard /
states the morning’s start.

If Thursday were my /
lover, I’d embrace her stars /
with my empty eyes.

I feel lightheaded
The things I’ve dreaded
have floated away.
I see the stars
but not the cars
I’m too far away.
The lines are bleary
between countries, but surely
they’re still there.
But from where I sit
this is just not it
for me to care.
The heavens beyond me
Inspire a song from me
but who would listen?
The earth recedes
and all my needs
I’m no longer missing.
Into the long night
my hope takes flight
and the stars do glisten.
All systems are go
I’m going with the flow
and forgetting my plight.
Though I have no air
I do not care.
I do not put up a fight.
The ellipse of my orbit
will allow me to see more of it
of this … of this good night.

Away and again,
she sweeps the stars from her eyes;
dreams leave, day arrives.

The stars in heaven
know not the human folly.
That is their beauty.
