Wishes To Atoms

With so many full moons on his calendar His high tide will never surrender He’s a failed star And must live with that scar Neither here nor there, Just floating hot air There, I found all your wishes Caught in his bearlike clutches On their way to a wishing star Condemned to him like Europa Married to him with an inescapable ring of gravity Of colliding rage and heart tearing jealousy He winked his red eye Neither unwanted nor unwelcome Aroused a fury of inferno At the Venus I weather His Giant storm in my sphere To suffocate the vacuum inside my fear Light years from my universe Souls howl like hounds to his moons Those alien worlds that never were, but still exist And wishes fall into a black hole to never exit A place where humanity’s raised to Mars And my ashes return to atoms
