Pan Cleansing

Standing in the middle 
of yesterday’s tomorrow,
she streams her existence 
through reverse osmosis
to purify the memories 
and wishflowers 
into a mineral-enhanced 
presence of being.

Capping her new essence,
she turns away 
from that second star on the right
and flies straight on,

no looking back,
no mourning.
