Sky Diving

Sky Diving


I hang on the edge
 of this universe
 singing off-key
 talking too loud
 embracing myself
 to cushion the fall


I shall tumble
 into deep space
 never in this form
 or with this feeling
 to return to earth


 It is not tragic


I will spiral
 through that Black hole
 losing skin limbs
 internal organs
 searing
 my naked soul


Landing
 in the next galaxy
 with only my essence
 embracing myself
 as


I dream of you
