Nebulae

indistinct

up there

beyond sky

before rising sun

broke

darker tides

along the sur

platinum dust

cerulean waves

tattoo soul

one then two then four then three

name it then

beautiful being

pushing wine

blood over table's edge

blue in a white room

the shade of fuzz

a simple name

echoing breath

nebulae

companion on a train

black cups of coffee

clouded by milk

and flecks of gold

minutes to go

in the park

before it rains

salt in your caffeine

crumbs of dreams

beyond the peak

of sunsets

now we are calm

curl and flex

recalculate

we count five

gyres

whirlwinds

puzzles

starfire

sinkhole

sunflower

planet

nebulae

desperate breaths

yearn for dreams

in tempered strength

of lost embrace

trusted hands

grope damp and deep

'cross fields

and forests of hair

painted toes

fold and crease

pained prettified petite

newly plump

ridges of lips

soft as baby fingers

upward arcs

steal the corners

of luminous distant eyes

nebulae

tragedy

transcribes laughter

chasing radiance

contrails of ghosts

never smile

feel a thrill

found you

found me

we happened

smile upon

gaze upon

lie upon

shards and shades

strange ecstatic

found love

story speaks

versus mantra of love

echoing name

never cease

indistinct

now come to be

what do you hear
