Cosmic
Tonight, the sky seems poisoned with a silence
That breeds a rather suffocating sort of death.
The stars are pinpricks. Small,
Points on some cosmic clockwork, some
Flower that fell off in a summer downpour.
Some blue eye, glassy, vacant- it’s time to lie down.
The moon is a promise of solitude to come
After all has been whisked away behind daylight
When each word is a revolution that tips Kings
Over into the paradise of fools. April skies
Barren with heat. An angering flinch from prisoners
Withdrawn into hollow expectation, a single
Palm that lets my hand go in the street, perhaps
To lose scattered stories- all worth going
