Elevation

Spurned faces muck in the dust
Raised by ceaseless motion
Of cyclical concerns

Waves settle in lapped sounds
Falling into synchronicity
On the line of the horizon

Plummet line sun draws tight things
Moon soothes caress, balm of the earthbound creatures

Clouds fly slow fast
Petrified in yawning quick glory of surprise
Breakthroughs

Drawn up and through
Splayed upon the dimensionless
Foreground
