Fragmented #6
DAH
There’s the cycle of another universe
a juxtaposition of everything pulling,
then again, it adds up to another to
–morrow: six planets in one sighting.
The contents of a black sky, like a
hasty rapture, like two-million years
of hope. Everything I’ve longed for,
mute, like a coma. Hope is spherical,
round and round and … all movem
–ents are dreams. Life is self-obses
–sion. Nightmares, hemorrhages of
fear. Bliss: your skin, electric when
taking you: blessed ocean, holy milk.
The closer you rise: aroma of sea, un
–dulating. Only your wholesomeness,
never a compromise. The anticipation,
more than the moment: don’t push away,
tomorrow may forget your sacred offering.
