Soul Food

Swallowing starlight, thirsting on ether that roars through the cosmos as fine, icy fire. Nibbling moon-dust, gobbling comets that streak through the heavens from heaven knows where. Digesting mysteries older than time, inhaling the dew, grateful for tastes that are forever ancient and new.
