Life of Star People
Blinking faces
Pools of light for eyes
Communicating with small touches
Murmurs of affirmation
Keeping quiet
Cutting paper hearts that glow in the dark
Veins filled with phosphenes
Mirrors for cars, rain for mirrors
Talking with strangers in nightly dreams.
This life is transient yet eternal
Has no beginning
Has no end
Rings of Saturn, Halos that no one can have
Because you're not an angel
And you have no wings to spread
Just waiting, sand clocks
trickling with the speed of light
Blessed with nature, blessed with existence.
