Echo

Your tongue
suspiciously
spoke of constellations,
an unlicked sky gripping secrets
nonetheless, that mouth spat it's majesty
without ever stirring the air 
proving no white stardust
really adorns
your tongue

This one is a tricky wee beastie, with so much elusive meaning evoking wild thoughts... I like it very much!
