here
there
in the blink
of beautiful eyes
gentle dragon
she was last seen
dragging stars across
a morphing sky
soft and serene
d y i n g
beneath the rainfall
and crumbling leaves
lining
the swolllen earth
with a final kiss
the apple broke
into a five-pointed
s e e d
scarring my bones
with light,
wisdom
and the breath
of her immortality

eternal-spiral~skin
one night of fireflies and wine I wandered
through the tall sweetgrass
my skin fell away into colored shards of mica
the sky swallowed me whole
as though I were an offering
I felt the cosmic mists
take hold and whisper to me within
dancing through like wild dragonflies
a divine collision, spirals and tails
sliding down an endless spell of Moons
i carry the memory as a child now gone
and still I cling to molten stars
still i dream of worlds afar
I never could quite see your face
but it has always belonged to my heart
it carved a sacred meadow through
my soul
and returned me
through spheres of pinks and gold
shimmering skins
fastened with light
a vessel pours me back to life
starry elixir
stitched into my hand
I awake beneath the Birch, glass and sand.
