Supernova
Blissfully arrayed,
they sit idle in showroom grandeur
akin and accustomed to the cuff
the cuffs of a man respected, a man cosmic.
Wondrously gilded,
the aqua sea glimmers between its hands
I can see the stars in its eyes
a glimmer so intense, the envy of all constellations.
Tastefully bedazzled,
golden brims mark distinction
characteristic ticks echo silently, restlessly into the void
counting one, two, three, a celestial metronome.
Carefully crafted,
beige snake scales caress the links
and mingle with my cuffs
a watch from the man who watched over me.
