A legacy of antique silver alone in the wide bed Under the golden branches of the stars The sharp edge of the night's sky scent The eyes follow a spark in the wind the glow burns from the adventures of ancient times Zoom different body parts into the ocean, catch back the composition breath, pulse and rhythm Time of heaven, I'm your brother Repair your troubles on the chin Never cut off the branch you are sitting on Salmon lice and sharks lurk in the bathing water When one world collapses, another can arise Everything will shine and and the blood dries out Bat wings breathe in your neck and the frogs tune their strings The soft wind, as cheeks against duvet covers Lips in prayer with their lust to embrace the sunrise A fluffy cobweb, a single shiny little straw, a virgin arrival before the voyage is over Eventually, everything will shrink to a zero point A reminder that the earth moves through the cosmos 06-10-2020 Sun :) - A-L Andresen :) Copyright © All Rights Reserved One on the Chin Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Kai Michael Neumann 5th place in the contest
